I can tell you that they wouldn’t have included it if it didn’t serve a purpose. However, that purpose might be for a feature you don’t use, or possibly even one that doesn’t exist for your board (e.g. if there’s a similar model with features added/removed, they may simply leave components off the lesser SKUs. For instance, you sometimes see solder points for 4 RAM slots, when only 2 are installed)

While I’m a fan of using things until they truly break, you have to consider what this could mean. If they are for voltage regulation, you could end up with rich, chunky volts to your CPU, RAM, GPU, etc.

If they are for thermal cutoff, things could melt or even catch fire. It might even happen when you aren’t home.

And if they are for RGB controls, you could end up with no lights, and that would just be too boring to accept. (/s)
