[BitFenix] BitFenix Launches 2 New Unique Fan Controllers

post #1 of 95

Thread Starter 
First up, Recon.

A "first ever", a 5 channel fan touch screen fan controller with internet connectivity! Use your smart phone, tablet, or laptop to easily control your fans on the go with presents.
484

Next up, Hydra Pro.
Some of you might have remembered our Original Hydra. It's PCI form wasn't very accessible, but it could control up to 9 LED lights, with a nob.
Since then, we've reworked it into a 5 channel fan (30 watts each) controller. Strategically placed on your optical bay drives, you now have easy access to those lights when you're about to go sleep.
253

Each to its own unique design, yet easily approachable to fit in any chassis, they're aggressively priced at $39 and $34.90 respectively. Both fan controllers have our SofTouch treatment on the bezel.

Both are available at Performance PC's!

For more information, check out our press release page:
http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/news/show/51,bitfenix-launches-recon-and-hydra-pro/

We'll be giving away 5 of these on our Facebook page!

Maaan that one Recon would look so nice on my Survivor dayum smile.gif the price is great aswell really low for a touch screen five channel controller.
You guys should make some kind of a shroud for cd/bluray roms for your chassis's to keep the original feel.biggrin.gif
Would be nice to see the pictures of the backside of those controllers smile.gif

A fan controller to rival my favorite FC Touch... BLASPHEMY!

I may have to grab one to see how I like it. I can't stand all the other touch controllers that look like a freaking control panel off of star trek :|
