not sure if my cpu fan has failed as it is not running at all. boots up and have played games on it with no problem and temps seem fine but always used to spin at some point. build was purchased from overclockers.

Connect it up to a different fan header, if still no action, failed fan, as presumably other fans run(spin) off the other fan headers just fine. Maybe the fan motor has seized up, move the fan(with the system powered off) fins around with your fingers and see if there's a large amount of resistance(or lack of fluidness/ease to the rotation).

Use a case fan in it's place if necessary as a quick and easy stop gap solution.
