I'm am looking for a cheapish fan controller for a cooler master n200. My power supply will be the antec high current gamer-520w semi modular 80+ bronze.

The case fans I will be using is the 2 fans the case comes with, two cooler master 120mm fans:

And one cooler master 140mm fan:

I am in Canada so it must be available in Canada. I would like it to work properly and not break. But cheap as possible.

Thanks!

Is there a cheap 5 bay one. Cause I have five fans. And I don't want a touch screen.

What motherboard are you using? Asus has great onboard fan control and idk, manual fan control seems odd for me. I rather make curves on software and let it bel. If you don't have enough fan headers you can use splitters or a fan hub with sata/molex power that uses the same PWM sign to control all fans.

System

  • CPU
    I7-4790K @ 4,7GHz
  • Motherboard
    Asus MAXIMUS Formula VI
  • RAM
    Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 1866MHz

Motherboard: gigabyte h81-m s2h.

I believe it only has 1 fan header and I thought it would be simpler just to plug my 5 case fans into a controller

I have 2 120mm fans from the n200.

2 cooler master 120mm fans

1 cooler master 140mm

You can use whatever software works to control your CPU fan and get this

It's a PWM hub, you plug it to your CPU fan header, plug a SATA power cable to it, and every fun will be controlled with the same voltage you are giving your CPU fan

In case your fans are not PWM:
