Any benefits to using the ASUS MB fan?

There is a small fan that comes with the ASUS P6T deluxe V2 MB.
It clips onto a heatsink that runs alongside the CPU.
It syas to use it when there is no CPU fan and when using watercooling but is there any gain to clipping it on and using it?

I'd say just try it and see if it affects your temp's. As long as they don't go up you may as well leave it on
