Help with fan on i5-3570k

[idata]

I just built my new rig, and my processor is working fantastic... but the included CPU fan cooler's fan is not starting up. It is moving like 1/6 a turn, then stopping, then moving 1/6 a turn, etc.......My rig is the following:

ASUS Sabertooth Z77

Intel i5-3570k CPU

EVGA GTX 560 2gb GPUOCZ Agility 3 120gb SSDKingston HyperX 16gb RAMOCZ 850w PSU

Win7 Home OS

Antec DF-85 case

I did notice that someone with a i7-3770k is having the same problem, and they are using the same motherboard. It was working initially... but after a day it started this weird thing.

If the fan is not working, please test it on a different fan header for you to be able to see if the issue relates to the fan itself or with the board in question. If the fan is indeed not working, feel free to contact the Technical Support Department for Warranty assistance on it: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/contact/phone http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/contact/phone
