Hi everyone, 

 This is my first post here and also my first computer build. 

 

I just bought the Fractal R6 and Delta fans that move 150cfm @ 4000rpm and draw 1.68amp at max is there any sort of specific controller/hub to get?

 

All the help is appreciated. 

The Define R6 comes with its own SATA powered fan hub. It should work, though I'm not sure how many of those fans it can supply power to as I dont know it's max output.

If it is RGB and the board doesnt have any RGB Headers you need a seperate RGB Hub

Delta doesn't make consumer fans. Those are server fans. Extremely loud and powerful. Why someone wants to have them in consumer build is beyond me.

Because Delta makes a quality fan and why not :)

Maybe because they can't be run off normal motherboard headers? And there aren't any nice controllers? There are DYI and if you mobo has high Amp header max 2-5A), you can use splitter like normal headers. But you can't go over max amp rating of header. 1x1.68A fan is already enough for 2A header. 5A header could take maybe 3, but you are risking them starting because currency draw is too much.
