Can you hook up the 3pin connector on the card directly to the mobod so the mobod can control the fan speed?

Is there a gpu that is quieter than the other? Any particular brand?

most newer cards are pretty noisy. They have really small fans that spin really fast and dont cool very well. i suggest that you do not hook your video cards fan into your motherboard because you could overheat and kill your graphics card. I suggest http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118117 for a good quiet and very effective cooling solution for a graphics card. I replaced my super annoying stock fan on my 6600gt with this one and i just wish i would have done it sooner.

I love Zalman. Cutest little fan. Ever.
