Looking for an inexpensive fan controller

[ofDoom]

That's basically it. Nothing fancy, just need to be able to control the voltages of 4-6 fans. Links to Canadian promos would be most appreciated.

No you want a fancy one, I can tell.

Zalman fanmate 2 as many as you need, you can get Y's to control more than one fan.


See told ya, you want a fancy one.

Zalman fanmate 2

Was that a joke
I'm currently looking at this one: http://www.xoxide.com/rheobus4port.html. Seen it being recommended in some threads, can anybody comment on it?

Inexpensive and not fancy fan controller you said. I was serious as a heart attack, but knew the way you presented the question was most likely inaccurate.

Here is what I call inexpensive and not fancy.

But I half guessed you were looking for a Bay Buss type controller

So it was kinda a joke, trying to have some fun, but just in case you actually were looking for something super cheap and definitely NOT fancy I wanted you to know about the zalmans

Must have been communication problem then.
Yes, a baybus is what I'm looking for.
Mind commenting on the one I "found"?

Not bad price, I haven't used one in ages so did not realize you could get one that inexpensive, last I looked at was $30 US.

20W a channel x 4 channels should run a LOT of fans

Only thing that would concern me is the high brightness LED's might be a little overpowering in a dark room, some people leave the machines on overnight in their bedroom while Folding@home. but thats kind of a special case. They would sure show up well in a bright room in the day.

Looks like a decent deal to me.
