Question about TV tuner.

[The VCR King]

Today I temporarily removed my TV tuner card to get to a fan header and upon reseating the card I noticed that there was a spot on it to plug in a molex power cable. I have never had this plugged in and the card has worked perfectly fine so I was curious to know if anything would happen if I did plug it in. Should I try it and see what happens?

Oh, thanks though! It looked like a floppy MOLEX connector. Thank god I didn't actually plug it in LOL!
