It sits on top of the cpu. Its pretty good sized. Asus has a utility on the cd for monitoring the cpu temps and fan speeds. You can also download it from Asus.

Hi,
My motherboard is ASUS A8N-E.
I opened the case and look into the motherboard have no idea where the chip fan is. Read the motherboard manual does say the location of the chip fan on the diagram.

I also checked the CD come with motherboard found no utility to monitor the speed and temperature of the motherboard chip.

And you are not the newsgroup police. There is nothing wrong with the user starting here. He soon gets redirected to a better group but the user seldom knows much about his computer beyond that it is running XP when he first asks his question. It has always been common for a user to start with a .general group when he is first wrestling with a problem.

Hi Man T, I apologise for Farad'ns fractious remark. This is the appropriate
place to start asking questions.

Yep - questions that have something to do with XP. The OP question
does NOT and is out of place HERE.
