Case Fans: Even Intake and Exhaust

what kind of fan controler is it? who makes it?

Vantec Nexus. I used it for a while and I really liked it. The only drawbacks are the fact that it cannot turn fans all the way off and it goes in a 5.25" drive bay. That is why i switched to a 3.5" that will turn off fans. If you don't have a problem with either of those then it is great. It is silver. Here is a link to it's page on the Vantec website.

Nah no good if it dont turn fans off

Hmm, oh well. Then get the other Nexus that does. It goes in a 3.5" bay and comes with 2 blue cathodes.

The temp control that Matt555 had seems good, cant remember what it was called, the gatwatch or somthing.

Yea, Gatewatch, it is a multi-function though. That is fine but it takes 2 drive bays and cost more than a simple fan controller.

Hmm, if i got one, i would take one of my dvd drivers out and either mount on the top of the case, or inside somewere.
