What Fan Controller should I get for Antec 1200?

Hiya i have a 1200 and you do not need a fan cotnroler at all.

there are 4 switches at the back for the 3 antec 3 speed fans at the rear and top (outtakes) And 3 small knobs at the front for the 3 intake fans which also have 3 speed settings so a fan controller is totally not needed!

Added to this the fans require direct power from the PSU and fan controllers usually only allow he small 3/4 pin fans to be used on them!

Please take my advice that the fan controller is not neeed as i made the same mistake wthout doing my research.

So basically the antec 1200 has its own fan control.

I dont have a 1200 but i have the 900 and the antec 3 speed fans switchers are inside the case and its anorying going in the case evey time to change the fan speeds. As far as the small 3/4 pin go you can get cables to sort it out i think its these cables you need but im not 100% http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CB-012-AK&groupid=701&catid=48&subcat=153

Sunbeam Rheobus Extreme. Can rig multiple fans up to the same header if you wish as they output something like 28w per channel. I prefer this method as it gets them all running at the same speed.

Doesnt look as refined as the MFC1 though.
