[RESOLVED] need a simple heatsink fan

[confabulator]

I have an Abit KT7-RAID mobo, and I think my Northbridge heatsink fan is dying. It makes weird noises, slows down very slow sometimes, and is making the "secondary CPU" read 40+ degrees.

But I'm having trouble finding a fan of this size. Where should I go to buy one? Should I run my computer at all until I get that fan replaced?

Thanks

Does your MoBo have any termal sensor?? You might run it making sure that the CPU temperature doesn't go above the treshold.

I just ordered a fan, thanks for the site. Just curious - at what temperature will my chips get damaged?
