Yeah actually seems a lot of people have this. Thanks! thumb.gif

One question though, do the fans make noise, do I have to install a fan controller lol?

Best price I could find for the Air Flo Controller 360, was $22 for a slightly used, like new.

I cannot find a better price anywhere else.

I paid 25 at bestbuy with a $15 off coupon (only reason I bought it) My rig is pretty loud, but on low it's quiet. high it's audible.

So Toys'R us has it for $19.98, with store pickup. Best price I guess.

Crap, nvm Toys'r us is out of stock in store. I guess I would have to buy the slightly used for $22.

As has been stated and linked to, there are many licensed Xbox 360 controllers that are not made by Microsoft. If one of those happens to just be similar, it may have extra buttons that need a specific driver. Also you can't just assume all the controllers that look like they are Xbox controllers are actually licensed controllers.

In any case, if the fan was loud, why couldn't he put in a resistor to slow it down ? This is OCN, people mod stuff all the time.


OP: I bought my Logitech ChillStream a few years ago and it is excellent; I think Logitech doesn't make it anymore, but if you can find one second hand, I recommend it. It also has a fan with three positions: Off, Low and High. At Low it is pretty silent, at High you can hear it unless you're wearing headphones.

Okay yeah the Logitech seems okay, but it is all fat and curvy. Found it on amazon for $25 used shipped.

Yeah OCN is for modders, might put a resistor with a knob, which becomes a fan controller. Simple as that.

Guys.. Well I got the OP joke.

I use a wired 360 contoller for most games recently using it for Diablo 3, since I have a htpc setup and of course play on my couch.

Plug and play, drivers recognized when connected if not driver support can be found at Microsoft website.

I use xpadder for my games and alternate mouse support. The software unfortunately cost around 10 bucks and it's no trial ware.

There are other controller profiler softwares out there though... Such as pinnacle for example. That's great too.

A majority of newer games will recognise a wired Xbox 360 controller right out of the box and usually will map the controls to the Xbox version of the game. When you first plug it in, you should see an update pop up like a windows update. I don't know what it does but get it anyway.
