Hey so, I am upgrading from a 660 to a 290x and so am investing in some better case cooling. 

 

I have bought 2 corsair af120 quiet editions to add to my aerocool and stock coolermaster fan, I also have a h80 push pull. 

 

So I was looking at getting a fan controller to fit into my 2 spare 5.25" drive bays but I don't know which are the best. I would preferably like an lcd screen not too fussed whether its touch or not, I don't need to control each fan individually just in groups so my 2 af120's at once. Also I am saving for a custom water loop so maybe something that has temperature readings from thermometers in the case/tubing if such a thing exists? 

 

Heres some I like the look of just wondering if anyone has first hand experience or other recommendations:

What is the rest of your hardware like...specifically your case. Fan controllers add a billion cables so you want to make sure you have the room to deal with them.

 

For only a few fans on air cooling I suggest you just buy some PWN fans and run them off your motherboard.
