Guys, I was checking my MSI Control Center software and it tells me that my CPU fan is working, well not working, at 0 RPM. So I opened my case and it doesn't spin Sad
Also tried to plug in the CPU in a system fan thingy, but that is a 3 pins, so it did not work.
Can I try other things to make sure it is the fan and not my motherboard?

Specs:
i5 2500K
8GB RAM
GTX275
Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B
P67A-GD55 B3

Also, I have a 120MM fan on the side of my case. Should that one be intake or outtake?

I think the fan is broke. http://www.allpinouts.org/index.php/Motherboard_%28CPU%29_4_Pin_Fan

Have you checked the wires to see if they have detached somewhere?

"Also, I have a 120MM fan on the side of my case. Should that one be intake or outtake?"

Generally it should be intake, it should be blowing air over your graphics cards.

The front of the chassi should suck in air as well as the sidewindow, since hot air rises it's only logical that the top/rear of the chassi should be an exhaust, as for the CPU fan I cant really help, sorry. :>

Can't you buy a new fan? Doesn''t cost that much.

if its bearingless ? you can fix it i fix all mine.. if its just magnets run then you can slide the whole assembly ouy clean out all the shit and check that the ( usually 3 ) capacitors on the small board are all in good condition. Dont forget to use something like vaseline or such to re grease the shaft area and over the holes it goes in then assemble and win..
