[cmge]

i cant seem to find a review of this particular product

Lian Li PT-FN03

http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=375&cl_index=2&sc_index=33&ss_index=94&g=f

its a pci fan speed controller.. according to the lian li website it can support up to 3 fans.. and there is no info on how much watt it can handle per channel..

i wonder if you can get away with 4 using a splitter... im planning on attaching 3 yate loon D14SL-12 fans..


any inputs would be appreciated.. thanks

I wouldn't buy a fan controller that does not specify it's wattage.


There's a sunbeam pci controller that's cheaper and will handle 20 watts, and can interpret PWM signals from your motherboard for fan speed controlling.

20 watts is enough for 4-5 of those yate loons.

for what it's worth, this looks like the variable speed fan controller found on other Lian Li cases, and I hooked mine up to 4 GT AP-29, works fine.

oh, and I think it supports 4 fans, could be a typo on Lian Li's website. 4 3-pin header can be clearly seen, just like the casing type.

I've got one of these, useful component and it does have 4 fan headers:
