Fan Controller: URGENT ADVICE

Blackhawk47 · 4 Dec 2007 at 18:30

okay so im looking for a fairly decent fan cooler however i dont think it will fit with my case. apevia x cruiser. it has a door (style front) and therefor i have it closed most of the time. most fan controllers look like the things stick out a bit . is this true.

Most do I'm afraid. Aerogates tend to make controllers which are fairly flush, such as this:

I found mine a bit plasticky though and replaced it...

How the hell is advice about a fan controller fitting behind a door anywhere near urgent?

your best bet is to just mount i further back in the drive bay

Try this badboy:

Integrated card reader, 4x USB ports, audio i/o and fan control for 4 zones.

Bit pricey at £40 though. :eek:

I have the first generation of the GateWatch and can confirm it is pants!

I would go for a more manual controller personally.

Silverstone do nice ones that are just slightly curved with no sticking out buttons.

What about the Allinone from Akasa, that looks pretty flush?

they are also crap. although they can control two fans well enough, they arent very flush either.
