I'd like to dial these fans back to 2000-2500rpm (seem fairly slient here) but I need a good, reliable fan controller to do it. I just don't know what exactly I need. These are big, powerful fans and I want to make sure there's enough power through the controller to let them go to max speed (if I want to benchmark or etc). I'm looking for any controller, price doesn't matter, that will reliably/accurately control both these ultra kaze's and maybe one other 120mm sliverstone case fan. I also need something in black and preferably with no LED's or red ones (anything else would look stupid on my case). Any ideas? |

The lamptrons are sold out at all the places I check and the only Lamptrons available were just the switch type that ran at either 5v/12v. I was hoping for more controll than that so they're out. With the NZXT's 10w per line seems like cutting to close to me, I don't have an open pci slot to hook up the LXE anyway. Here's one more question, do the dial-type fan controllers actually control accurately? Or are they the same as the 5v/12v/off switch-type controllers? In other words, dial or not, do all controllers just give two speeds and an off position... |
