The white is right (you have to say it with a Jonathan Ross voice)

rjk · 25 Mar 2013 at 17:26

it would suit your colossus case well

biuro74 · 25 Mar 2013 at 17:38

I've bought one over a year ago in OcUK ... and still didn't put into PC ;-)

RetrogamerX · 25 Mar 2013 at 17:55

The best fan controller I've ever used.

VIPER258 · 25 Mar 2013 at 18:03

Was looking to get a lamptron FC6 but may have to reconsider now.

randal · 25 Mar 2013 at 18:04

Why oh why don't they do a brushed aluminium version, at that price it would be perfect for my CM Wavemaster.

Pelinox · 25 Mar 2013 at 18:14

Customizable profiles make it easy to save and recall your favorite settings, while the SofTouch™ bezel makes it an attractive addition to your killer rig.

So you can save profiles, so it will ramp up fans automatically?
I have a "door", so I am looking for a fan controller that would do just that, but i'm not sure this could be it?

Agree, don't use the recon software it's rubbish. Phoebetria is amazing!

silversurfer · 26 Mar 2013 at 13:58

I like the idea of turning up a tornado fan to 100% while out of the room and not having to suffer the noise

Quick blast of cold to wipe out the dust then back to sweet ambiance

I've been away for a few days but I am one of the developers of Phoebetria. I think many will agree that our software has been quite stable for quite sometime now. If there's something that wasn't working for you please let us know. We've just started with version 2 which is a complete rewrite, if there's something we can resolve we will try and get it into the rewrite. The only feature we haven't been able to provide yet is the remote access but that will also come in version 2

Edit: rainmeter isn't what I thought it was, I thought it was geared toward sensor readings. I will have to look at it further and respond properly. Maybe you can give me some info on specifically what you're looking to do?

whitetop · 1 Apr 2013 at 16:48

now there in stock after i waited and just got a aerocool nnnnnooooooo

los · 1 Apr 2013 at 22:04

I bought one of these and have been very impressed with it, its so much quieter now

Pelinox · 2 Apr 2013 at 00:36

Will it allow me to turn fans off, or how low will they drop? I've seen many won't go below 40%, which I would like them to.

valkynaz · 2 Apr 2013 at 10:34

Just ordered one of these in black

.

Is it possible to turn off the display on these? I see a power button but it isn't clear what it does.

Just for sensor reading really so u can have text on ur desktop with probe temps and current fan speeds. If you look at speedfan and its rainmeter addon something like that?

I have bitfenix spectre's paired with this and there max speed is about 1200rpm and i can get them down to 400rpm before they struggle to move. But u can turn any fan off or let the automatic controls run your fans but you need ur probes placed well for this mode to work

Yes if u press and hold the power button it turns the display off

To turn it back on simply press the display anywere.
