    Replacing Asus A8N SLi Deluxe Chipset Fan..

    Is it possible to do this without taking the motherboard out, bearing in mind that I have a motherboard tray and therefore can't actually get at the back of it?

    I really can't be arsed taking it all out after having it neatly wired a few times, so help is much appreciated.

    It's difficult enough to get it off with the motherboard out - I had to snip the pushpins in the end.

    I'm planning on replacing it with the new version, which I have right here. Although I've been running 24/7 for about 9 days now with no fan...

    Ehm, well I have 3 120mm case fans, but I have no chipset fan at the moment as it's not spinning at all.
