Is this something I should be concerned about? I noticed lately that the fan on my A7V133 motherboard (on top of the Northbridge?) doesn't spin. It must have happened lately, and so far I've seen no adverse affects. Checking the temperature through the BIOS, it's no higher than it was before, but it still troubles me a bit.
Mine died too and replaced it with a Thermaltake Blue Orb (same mobo). Touch it after some gaming and see if you need to replace it or not (hot or not). The factory cooler is a joke anyway, you better off with an upgrade of it.
Sympatico now 5/5Gig limit a month and the price goes up. Or 10/10Gig for 70$! Get another ISP!

The chipset fans Asus was putting on those boards are a complete joke, pretty sad considering how much the board cost. I just replaced one because it was whinning so loud it was scaring the person that bought the computer from me.
