Master
Im looking to buy a new fan controller and was wondering if anyone knew of any really good ones. Preferably one that will do both manual and automatic control. Also preferably black and to control 5 fans.

Would appreciate 1st hand advice rather then reviews of reviews if possible.

Many thanks.

What about the lamptron fc2 http://www.lamptron.com/products/view/Fan_Controller_FC2

45ws per channel, could easily connect two or three fans to one channel,

but its not automatic.

As for ya first hand reviews, I use an lamptron fc 8 , 8 channels, I currently have two fans connected to five of the six channels I'm using, and just one fan on the sixth channel. You can connect 3pin or 4pin PWM fans, extension cables are provided, has LED's on the front, is black. It does need a 600w psu according to lamptron though, and connects to a power cable with 3 plugs. 30 w's per channel too, so easily connect 3 fans to a channel if needed. Its really good, you can turn off the fan if you want or ramp them up to max. Great when I want the pc to run quiet. Fully recommend! I think you can see it in my pics in the pics section

I tried a akasa one before I got this, i didn't like it very much, caused the fans to have a strange ticking and clicking noise, something to do with how the power is controlled I think. But not sure exactly what the problem was, it does look good though. http://www.akasa.co.uk/update.php?t...Fans&type_sub=Fan Controller&model=AK-FC-08BK

Tnx folks

Appreciate that. I first thought of going for this NZXT-Sentry-Mesh-
but think is only 3 pin so think will go with your suggestion of the fc8.

Tnx kindly to you both
