:DSo I am need of some help again so I need to come to myboardband for help like always the best place


Soooo let me start, ok I have a supperchannel 711 case and I need 4 fans and a fan controller now I have looked at the following


  • Aerocool - F4XT for R 152
This is the fan controller I will take its cheap and does the work http://www.aerocool.us/peripheral/f4xt.htm

Now the fans

  • Cooler Master Excalibur Fan For R 183
Now this is a nice fan but I dont want to buy 4 of them thats like R732.00 for just the fans http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6634

This fan I like more and its cheaper
  • Turbine Master MACH1.8 for R 90
I like this fan and its cheap and I think it would work great http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6691


Now I am stuck I am afraid that if i buy the R90 turbine master it wont start up if the controller is at the low (5v and lower) setting (so that is why I am asking does anybody here have exprence and if they can help)

Thanks :D
 
A lot of "need" and "so" in there. You don't need anything. You want it.

Not sure why you want a fan controller. Just plonk in the fans and let them run all the time at full speed or whatever (good motherboards control the fan speed automatically anyway)
 
I wanted to do that but my PC already sounds like a monster when I am busy watching movies and series, I only have a heat probleme when I am playing Starcraft 2 when my 560Ti go up around 80C (Kalahri is a hot place to start with) and i use my G35 when i game so then noise is no probleme

And my mboard does not have more connecters for fans, I need to get power from the psu
 
I suggest you look at these fans also, you can find them for around R80 locally:

They have a very wide RPM range, 4 wire(PWM), and the same blade shape as the Akasa Apache, which is highly recommended and have a very high static pressure, if you decide to go with watercooling at some stage.
