Hi,

i have 2 Asus ROG Strix gtx1070's running in SLI mode and recently came across a page detailing how to use fanConnect2 for better performance

https://rog.asus.com/articles/gaming-graphics-cards/strix-gtx-10801070-what-is-asus-fancontrol/

I have 2 case fans that sit pretty much right in front the of 2 cards so was thinking of connecting these 2 fans in this manner. My question though is if i connect them via the cards rather than to the motherboard, will the 2 case fans always go? Or will they only turn on and off as the graphics card requires them ?

Thanks!
