I'd keep it. Both bling and usefull. The question left is, what do you want your PC to do, if there's no flow, then how are you going to make it do that?

You could tap it into the power_good line of the PSU, but it'll shut down the PC without warning.

You could simulate a tach signal (sample circuit has been posted here before) and feed it through the CPU fan header, causing a softer shutdown.

Many options.
