K6-2 HSF on my 9100... HELP?

[travsav]

Just pulled this HSF off an old K6-2... a little bit longer/wider than the original ATI HSF, and about 2-2.5 times as thick, fits great...

But... How should I plug the fan in? It's got a 3 pin connector on it, should I use this connector, and plug it in somewhere (if so where?)? or should I cut it off, and use the original connector that plugs into the card itself...

Any help would be appreciated...

Plug the conector in the mobo and you're done.

I take it that it is a large HeatSink? Does your case have good cooling? If both questions are answered with yes then take the fan off and see if there are any problems running it passively. A PC can never be quiet enough IMO.

what if I don't have an extra plug on my motherboard?

use a cheap 3 to 4 pin adapter
