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

aerocool makes a thin fan like you are looking for.

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