Fractal Design Define R2 question

[PermaChanged]

I've got a Define R2 on order and I've just got a quick question regarding space behind the door when it's closed.

I've got one of these Akasa fan controllers, http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-021-AK , and I was wondering whether the control knobs will fit behind the door, they protrude about 15mm. Is the door liner foam? If it is it might warp to the knobs, hopefully.

Hope someone can help!

Any fan controller with knobs will not fit, the door will not close. your going to damage the fan controller knobs

No, it will not fit. The only way to fit it would be to sit it further into the case (so it aint sitting flush) - I did this recently with Summer on its way

Thanks for the info, will look into getting a different fan controller.

Rather than start a new thread....

Does anyone know of a 5.25" fan controller which will work with the Fractal case? Ideally it will have an SD memory card slot, USB's would be a bonus too but not essential.

The Akasa All-In-One 21 looks pretty good, anyone used one?

I have a NZXT Sentry 2 and that works well

I ahve the same problem, I was looking at the sentry too, or putting the controller in side the case, back to front? But that means no changing speeds whilst gaming
