I would have to double check when I am at home, but I'm pretty sure it
doesn't.  This is a SFF pc where every bit of available space is utilized,
so I don't believe there are any unused connectors.  The messages in dmesg
don't bother me as much as my cpu running at it's slowest speed.  Are there
any kernel arguments I could pass to disable the monitoring?
