Im after a fan controller to fit in a Fractal R3 that is used for gaming / htpc and i have a few requirements for it 
The fans that will be linked up to it are, 3 x 120mm front/bottom fans, 1 x 140mm Side Fan and hopefully the 2 fans on my H80 CPU cooler.
1 - Low profile so that the door will still be able to close, touch screen would be nice.
2 - Includes software so I can be really lazy and change the settings/fan speeds from the comfort of the sofa / without going under my desk.
3 - Allow profiles to be made? so at the touch of the screen / using software, allow 2 or more profile to be set up, so one for htpc (low fan speed), one for gaming (high fan speed) and a general everyday use one?
4 - Allow control of 6 fans, altho 4 would be acceptable.
It seems that the Aqua Computer Aquaero 5 PRO can do all the things i want one to do, but it seems overkill and a tad expensive...
Can anyone suggest an alternative or am I being far to picky?
Thanks
Adam
