Best touch screen fan controller for 11 fans?

[Space Monkey]

Hi guys,

As per the title, I have the Phanteks Enthoo Primo case that comes with a front door panel, so I'm thinking of getting a touch screen fan controller, but are they any good? What's the best built & best for my needs?

Otherwise I'll end up getting the Lamptron FC8 and just resign myself to keeping the door open?

Thanks

Needed to get an order in so went for the Lamptron FC8 in the end, coming tomorrow

I did exactly the same thing, although you should be able to mount the controller further in so the door can still close

I've got a lampton fc6 (I think, had it many years) and I just use fan splitters.

Do you need the touch screen? Why not get an Aquaero instead? The LT versions don't come with a display so can be mounted inside. Or if you want the cosmetic look (I do, gimme bling!) then get the Pro or XT. If you're not using PWM fans then it gets trickier (may need to add power boards). Comes with 4 temperature probes and you can assign fan curves to all kinds of sensor readings.

Good idea, I hadn't thought about fixing it slightly further back?

Thanks for the info, though I've since bought the Lamptron FC8.

I originally thought a touch screen was a better option due to the fact my case has a door covering the front 5.25" bays
