I suspect the fan is not running as it should because it runs all the time at full speed. I have changed the cooling paste, but that did not help.
Can anybody help me find a replacement that fits? I can only find for other models of the Cubi. The CPU is a N6000

I would probably just zip-tie some bigger fan on there, like a decent 80mm fan or so. I assume there is a 12V fan header on the PCB (if it's 5V, even better, the fan will run much slower to begin with). Just cut off the old fan cable close to the fan, and the you can connect it to the bigger fan. Now, the bigger fan can obviously run at very low RPM to cool this. If the small fan is a 12V one, and if the fan control doesn't work, you're gonna have to further DIY it with perhaps a low-noise fan cable adapter or something. But yeah, usually not worth fan-hunting for these little "tasmanian devil" fans, just slap a bigger one on there, that will be much superior at lower noise.
