Hi guys...
I just modded my Radeon 9700 Pro with a Cooljag JAC313C 1U CPU cooler, and currently I'm running the fan off a PSU molex connector. Since the fan is using a 3 pin connector(with fan monitoring) and the board's fan power connector is 2 pin, I'm wondering if the card is able to handle the new fan's load? The fan specifications are as follows:
Dimension: 60L x 60W x 10H(mm)
Rated Voltage: 12 V DC
Speed: 5300±10%RPM
Bearing System: One Ball Bearing
I couldn't find any current ratings for the fan though...but from what I've read these fans are the exact same blue dynatron fans that are used in the stock HSFs of recent Athlon XPs.
