I have a Gateway PC with a BTX form factor. The CPU is cooled by the front case fan's air which is directed over the CPU's heatsink. This is why this front case fan is plugged into the mobo (I'm guessing the fan's speed varies according to the CPU's temperature).
Can I buy a replacement case fan that has this same function (sensing the CPU temp)? What type of connector do I need to look for on the replacement?
The fan is 120mm. Would this fan do the job?: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811999122
