Click to expand...

your right in that its usually used for WC systems but it just means that either.

A. Fan control in BIOS is disabled.
B. It does not have a control and runs full blast all the time.

You should not have any issues using it. If your fan is too loud look in the bios for the fan control setting and change it.
