Have you got a fan on FAN1 of the hub? Going of the user manual, the RPM signal comes from that and then back to the motherboard. Then all the others run at whatever the fan on FAN1 is running at.

Yea I can see in the bios the fan speed but it does not seem able to adjust it up or down to the fan curve. I have contacted Phantek to see if they can send a replacement.

I run mine from within the Asus motherboard utility software. Not tried within the bios.

Tried it with just one fan on Fan 1 nothing, it should be able to run a single fan without the Sata power, but with or without Sata power, it does nothing.

Tried 3 Pin and 4 Pin Fans no joy on either hub.

Tried a Modmytoys Hub, it works fine, but offers no control on speed, I run my fans at 800 ish RPM so need to get some sort of controller that is small and can hide in the case

Seen a few people with same problem, flat out speed, but no control.

I've added you to RoH RED, I hope your cpu works ok. Don't think I'd be too happy if mine showed up crushed in the box like that.

Let us know how your build goes.

Really like this case, just wish they would make a larger version to suit my needs.

How big do you need?

Brutus · 8 Aug 2015 at 14:49

Shame the Black version comes with white PCI slot covers and yet the Gun Metal comes with black...

Jiggy · 8 Aug 2015 at 14:53

^ Agreed. I really don't understand the logic behind that decision

Rustyone · 8 Aug 2015 at 18:23

Ended up using my fan controller stuck in the back along with the SSD's, I'm kinda going off the case already it's just a bit too small and crowded with 2 rads.

Putting the sides / front on put temps up by 6 Degrees and the 24Pin cutout is crap for EATX boards.

Bit of cable tidying to do but nearly there.

That's 1 sweet looking rig rustyone

.:SAmSuNG:. · 8 Aug 2015 at 20:46

Those are some pretty fat rads you have there. Is the ATX version a mid tower case?

colinmcr · 8 Aug 2015 at 20:57

Rustyone, it does look rather cramped in there, but you've squeezed a lot in at least. My plans might have to change, I think I've been spoilt using the Primo.

Yes I suppose you could say Mid in height anyway.

Rads are just 45's

Yes it looks a bit like the Xmas sales, I might look for another case also, it's just that I tend to stick with alloy cases so not so much choice.

Is the top rad in push pull? I guess if your psu wasn't so big you could get away with the pump in the lower section. Mine was a bit of a pain to fit it all in but I think cases look better when it looks full rather than loads of empty space.

Top is just push, never found much gain with push / pull tried it a few times over the years.

Lower Section has 4 SSD's and the fan controller, Cables and the bottom of the rad, so no space there
