Anyone know of any internal fan controllers (possibly hooked up to pc software) that makes for easy fan control, as i have a corsair 450d and using optical bay ones looks ridiculous and spoils the look of the case.

For the very crudest fan control imagineable a simple potentiometer will sometimes suffice. I've built one that's slightly more intricate, but still very simple: A potentiometer is used to select a certain voltage. This is boosted by a coin cell battery to overcome the threshold voltage and drive the gate of an N-channel MOSFET, supplying a constant voltage irrespective of load.

Of course you can buy off the shelf ones, but where's the fun in that, eh?

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

Corsair commander mini, NZXT grid+

Thise are the only two i know of, and the Commander mini absolutely sucks right now.

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it
