Default Can I control speed of fan on video card?

Hi Folks,

I bought an Antec quiet case and a quiet power supply,
Athlon64 3200 and MSI K8N Neo MB. The system is really
quiet except for my video card - Asus GeForce4 Ti 4200-8x.
The fan on the video card is really loud. I can control
the CPU and case fan speeds, but I don't see any way to
control the fan on the video card. I guess it is not
a good idea to disconnect that fan. Any ideas? Thanks,

You can't control the speed but you can swap the fan and heatsink for
quieter ones. Plenty of aftermarket solutions out there.
