Default Need help, just instaled a Zalman VGA cooler
Like the title says.... I have an MSI rx9800 pro and it has a our pin power conector on it, should i still plug it in even though it does not have the stock cooling on it any more. Does it use that power for the card ass well or just the stock heatsink? Thanks...

Plug the fan power cord into the mobo. It will allow you to adjust the speed for it in ATI tool.

Don't use the fan controller, just plug it into the video cards connector. You need an external power connector for the graphics card. Check on the back of the card, you will see a power connector for it.

No, the 9800 needs to be plugged into your powersupply, via a four pin connectorty from the power supply. If the Zalman is a 3 pin, plug it into an open 3 pin space on the mobo.
