Hi all,

My video card is Inno3D 9800GT Twin turbo. There are two connectors on the fan cable. The first one is mini 4-pin and connected to the card and the second one is mini 3-pin and not connected. I found the fans too noisy so want to disconnect the 4-pin one and connect the mini 3-pin one to a resistor cable which is now connected to a case fan. The problem is the mini 3-pin connector is smaller than normal ones (like case fan), so it does not fit the resistor cable. The mini 4-pin one is also smaller than normal. EVEREST and EVGA Precision both can't detect the fan speeds so I guess software approach might be impossible.

Anyone knows where I can find the suitable cable/converter to reduce the fan speed? I'm living in the UK. Thanks in advance.
