Don't worry, these fan headers are a new feature that allows you to connect case fans to your graphics card, so you can control it with GPU temps. (Rather than through mobo or fan hub)

I noticed that the strix 1070 has fan headers. Should I worry about compatibility issues with those? or are they not required. (like if they where used for some sort of custom fan settings) Thanks for the help! :D

Well of course they have fans. :D But my 270x and my 390 didn't have any fan headers on them. The fans just worked with power and the pcie slot. Ive never had to install fan headers for a gpu before. Is it just an nvidia thing?
