I want to replace the native video card cooler without backlight with backlight is it possible?

Question

Electronics

I have an Asus Phoenix RTX 2060 video card, I want to change my native cooler without backlighting, which is backlit from Aorus 2060 Super or Aorus 2086 Ti Xtreme. Now, the native cooler and from Aorus are both 95 mm, the mounting holes are of course different, but this is not a problem. On my cooler, on the reverse side, it says 12V 0.40A on the sticker, and on the Aorus that I want to change it says 12V 0.55A, well, in fact, both are on 4 Pin, although on my 6 Pin, although 2 of them are empty. Can I change it? Nothing will burn?

Answer 1

The new cooler consumes one and a half times more. So the question is - is the video card power subsystem designed for such a current? If yes, then nothing will happen, if not, it may burn out. This can only be determined experimentally.

Answer 2

Yes, it can be easily replaced. You need to pay attention to the pinout of the connector, they may differ.
