Im looking for a fan controller, as Asus xpert is not letting me work with some fans, I have 2 120mm fans on my h50 2 120mm on the top of my case, 200mm on the front of my case (I plan to switch this to 2 120mm but I need to mod my case as it only supports 1 200m fan), and a pump.

 

so I need a fan controller that can control all of that I can group the 2 on rad, 2 on top, and 2 in front, so I would need bare minimum 4 fans to control. I want the fan controller to send info to my pc via one of the internal USB ports so I can have HWiNFO and Rainmeter show me speeds.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

I had troubles with my ASUS Z97 motherboard determining if my fans were 4pin or 3pin. It originally just showed as gray in Fan Xpert when trying to set a curve. Going into the BIOS and manually setting the mode (PWM/Voltage) fixed this for me. It was originally assuming all of my fans were 3pin (Voltage controlled).

 

Are you using 3 or 4 pin fans?

 

I later found I had issues with fan controlling my custom loop and I'm switching to this: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/13696/bus-271/Aquacomputer_Aquaero_5_LT_USB_Fan_Controller_Liquid_System_Controller_53095.html

Although this may be overkill for you... For controlling temps per CPU temperatures, Fan Xpert was fine.
