Fan controller suggestions.

shirokado · February 12, 2013

I want a fan controller that goes onto a single 5.25 bay or a single PCI-E slot. I have 5 fans, 2 AP 121 on my h100 and 3 Fractal design r2 140mm fans.

The Hydra Pro or the Recon by Bitfenix can control up to 5 fans.

Should i get the Hydra Pro or the Fractal Design Adjust 108, I really only need 5 Controllers. so which looks better ? warrenty? quality?

The Fractal Design Adjust 108 can deliver up to 36W while the Hydra Pro only delivers 30W. There is a jumper on the Fractal Design Adjust 108 for adjusting the intensity of the LED levels unlike the Hydra Pro which only allows you to turn them off or on. I would go for the Fractal Design Adjust 108 because it has better features than the Hydra Pro and it has brushed aluminium which looks great.
