It's there for safety. Use it.
dogtoy said:If you connect FG straight to the ground on the board without any caps or anything for isolation you may start to have problems with video ghosting or weird audio humming since the FG in your house can sometimes act like a giant antenna and pick up stray rf. Not a big deal but if you notice it happening, and it wasn't happening before, that's probably what it is.
*edit*It might be better to connect the FG to one of the chassis screws on the power supply? Anyone else ever tried that or have thoughts about it?*/edit*
