8600gt fan?

[Kingofpain]

just bought an 8600gt msi oc

noticed it had a fan connector does this NEED to be connected to the psu? if not why is it there?

gonna take a stab at no..

As long as the fan on the card is working it should be fine.

Perhaps it's there for after market coolers etc..

ok thanks i am using it without the connecter anyways as the fan connecter is too small for a psu fan connecter, and on a side note msi bundle alot of crap on thier cd's lol
