Ditto. I always replace chipset HSFs with Zalman long finned heatsinks.
Those fans never last long.
Be aware that the Zalman that SMB linked to above requires that your present HSF uses 2 mounting holes on the mobo. Most chipset HSFs are this design.
A rare few are glued onto the chip with no mounting hardware attaching it to the mobo. If that's what you have then you'll need one of these:

Wich fan died?
Doesn't have 2?
If it is the big fan that blows out the back, just get a good 80mm (it should be a 80mm fan) fan. I replaced mine (a dif system) with just a standard LED fan

those don't have the RPM lead, so the PC wont be able to adjust the speed
