This is not necessary on Zalman heatsinks because they include the FanMate2 for fan control. -- Please use all available doors...you have 33 to choose from.

Ugly Fishy Cool Bird join:2001-12-12 The Meadow ·Comcast	Let's say if one does not like the "FanMate2," can one just plug the (very same three-pin connector as the FanMate) fan DIRECTLY into the CPU_FAN connector and live happily without the fancy fan-speed-control? Honestly, if it works just as well in cooling without FanMate2, what's the point of continuous adjustment via a knob? -- Oh, I love the smell of fish. Guts, rotten, it's all good.
