The Card Cooling Fan
NOTICE: PCI Express graphics cards that run higher than 75 watts (W) require an additional cooling fan
installed. Otherwise, your card could overheat and damage your computer.
If you ordered your computer with a graphics card that requires the fan, the fan is included. If a
card fan is not present in your computer and you are installing a graphics card that runs higher than
75 W, contact Dell to purchase a card fan.
If the computer detects that you have installed a card that requires a fan, an error message appears.
