Removing ATi Onboard fan

I've got an ATi Graphics card (9100)

and i'd like to change the fan on its heatsink, ive got a fan which i'd like to replace it with. I want to power this new fan from a molex connector.

would there be any problems with the card if i disconnected the onboard fan from its header?

like the card having extra volts inside it, not being able to use them up in the fan???

Thanks

Shouldn't be a problem - the card will draw less power from the AGP port.

and what about the same for the northbridge fan on a NF7-S?

The only time I can see you having an issue is if any fan speed monitoring occurs and the board thinks the fan has failed. Otherwise I see no problem.
