You can get a 3/4 pin fan header connector to molex adapter pretty cheaply. That way you don't have to limit your search of fan controllers to those with just molex connectors. Do the Gentle Typhoons not have 3 or 4 pin fan connectors?

I'm sure there are controllers out there that you can use software with but I don't know where to get them or who makes them. Most people just use speedfan for that.... just connect the gentle typhoons to your motherboard and use speedfan to control them.

The Sunbeam Rhoebus extreme comes with 2 molex to 3-pin connectors. Just find two more and your set.

Its does come with two molex conectors(I own it). You can also reverse the controller so it points inside.
