First of all check that there really is a fan on there and if it is
spinning ! A common fault is the fan sense (Yellow wire) goes O/c
leading to the message CPU0 Fan error.
If you really need a fan, it would be safer just to buy a standard
heatsink fan unit ! That way you will also get the phase change
material that goes between the CPU and heatsink.
