Neither, The CPU is the Central Processing Unit, it only processes information and bits of data the computer sends thru it. The motherboard supplies power to the case fan AND the CPU fan, which is supplied power from the PSU (power supply unit)

Does the power supply provide power to a CPU fan or case fan?
yes, the power supply provides power specifically to the motherboard in turn dispersing power to all components plugged into the motherboard, hope this helped :)
What is used to provide the proper voltage to a CPU?
A power supply that transforms AC to DC is used to provide the proper voltage to a CPU.
Is power supply a component of CPU?
CPUs get power from two places-- From the motherboard through the tiny pins on the bottom of the CPU (Which in turn gets power from the 20 / 24 pin connector that connects tot he power supply) and from a 4 / 8 (Only on the newest boards) - pin connector that directly feeds the CPU a very steady supply of power. Both come from your actual Power Supply.
Examples of a computer hardware?
Case / power supply, Motherboard, CPU, Memory, Optical drive, Hard drive...
Is the case that holds the computers main circuit boards microprocessor memory power supply and storage devices?
Yes. The case holds the motherboard, CPU, RAM, power supply, and storage devices (hard drive, optical drive).
What is the 12 parts of system unit?

Can any power supply be used on a Pentium 4 processor?
Yes, almost every PSU has enough power to supply a P4 CPU. It depends on the total load, not only on the CPU.
Your CPU has no power but all peripherals do - what is wrong?
Many/most motherboards have a separate power connector for the CPU. Check your motherboard's installation instructions to locate the CPU power connector. Then connect the matching power supply cable to the CPU power connector on the motherboard.
What power connector standard incorporated a separate 4-pin plug to supply power to the CPU?
I know it as a P4 power connector. it works for many CPU's.
How many fans are mounted on CPU?
If you mean CPU as Central Processing Unit, then theres one mounted onto the CPU. If you mean CPU for Computer, then theres at least two or three in the computer. Theres one on the central processing unit, one in the power supply box, and one on the computers case. There may be more added on other places of the computer's case.
How can you tell if your power supply or CPU has gone out?
Pull out CPU and turn on your computer, if you hear BIOS error complaining about CPU absence: most likely your CPU is dead. Also try to test power supply harness. All required wiring diagrams and standards you can find in internet, just use google.
