Hi folks,
I have just finished a semi-upgrade of my rig, everything apart from the CPU and motherboard actually!
I've fitted a Corsair H110 to cool my i7-2600K processor (no overclocking) and unfortunately realised that my motherboard only has one fan header other than the CPU fan (used for the pump) and it isn't speed adjustable (mobo is a Gigabyte Z68MX-UD2H-B3).
Now the new setup has the two Corsair supplied 140mm fans for the radiator plus the case (Corsair 750D) has two front fans and a rear fan pre-installed. I had bought an Akasa 1 to 5 PWM fan splitter for the build but given my discovery about the case fan header on the motherboard all the fans are running at full speed and it is LOUD!
I'm guessing I need a fan controller, so please could I get some recommendations based on the following criteria:
+ 5.25" bay
+ Needs to have 5 fan controls
+ No touch-screen ones, I'd prefer a simple dial for speed control, no need for a screen at all
+ Ability for fans to go at least as low as 25%
+ Some of the fitted fans are 4-pin so ideally the fan controller would support these without the need for extra adapters (or be supplied with adapters)
Thanks in advance for any help/advice!
