Well, if you have it set up on a laptop it will surely tell you that the power fan is 0 rpm. This is because a laptop does not have a power fan.
It has a Cpu fan and maybe even a GPU fan, but no power fan.
Only desktops have power fans.

Dont take too much notice, can you hear the fan in your power supply? If you can the software's lying. It will often report a system fan as 0rpm as well just because there isn't one installed

it is safe to ignore it (unless the thing is overheating and shutting down suddenly)
it could be that the cpu does not have the thermal/rpm sensor on it (this is common) if in doubt ask in independant box builder (if your not techincal yourself)
it is probably nowt to worry about
