Hi guys!
I have recently installed an Accelero S1 with Turbo module on my 6850. The problem is that I have 4 channels on my fan controller and 5 fans, so I have to use a splitter what messes up readings. I was wondering if I could connect the Turbo module (it has normal 3-pin connector) to the old 2-pin thing on the card. It is kinda tricky to access (I think I may have to take the heatsink off) and I cannot really check it myself right now, so I ask you.
Thanks!
2-pin VGA fan connector & normal fans?

I doubt it will be much trouble. I've connected a 3-pin fan to an old ATI card with a 2 pin fan connector by removing the holder around the pins.

But will it work properly, so that I can control it with MSI Afterburner?

Afterburner should adjust the voltage going through the red wire the same way it would with the stock fan.Anatorax wrote:But will it work properly, so that I can control it with MSI Afterburner?
The yellow wire is only used to read rotation speed. If the card only has 2 pins then it doesn't care.
