fan control solution help

hey guys i have like 10 3pin fans that i'm planning to run but i can't think of any fan controller that can handle my needs. could you guys recommend me something? prefereably two controllers at most and doesn't require physically flipping a switch or twisting a knob

so what you are looking for is something that will convert the pwm signal from the mobo to control 3 pin fans automatically. the phanteks pwm hub fits your use case perfectly

you just power it with only the 4 pin, and it reads the rpm from fan 1. it can support up to 12 fans, though you need splitters for that. it comes with 2 splitters in the box, so youll need to buy another 2 to use all the fans. also make sure total power draw is under 30W; otherwise, you need a second fan hub

What fans do you have and how to you want to control them if not with physical controls?
