GeForce 3 Ti200 Power Connection

[PhantomOSX2]

I just got my GeForce 3 Ti200 today and it didn't come with any manuals. I noticed at the end of the card it has a type of floppy drive power connection thing, what is that for? I've searched the forums but haven't seen anything about it. I've heard it's for 3D Glasses or something but I couldn't verify it. I know newer cards require secondary power sources to run correctly but I have doubt for this card. Any info would help.

Is the connector on the back of the card (with the monitor connector) or on the inside?

hmm... m GF3 TI200 has nothing like that... but mine is a chaintech. i wonder.. search for a PDF manual, maybe? (google)

On my card it is called a VIP connector. I was looking at my manual, but didn't see (at this time) what it was used for, but I think it is for connecting to another card, internally, such as a tuner card.
go to your manufacturer's site and look under 'support' or 'download' for your user's manual, and download it for your reference.
