My new case is a Phantom 820 that c/w fan controller.
The motherboard is a asus Z9PE-D8 that allows 4 x 4 pin PWM control by the motherboard.

The no. of fan is 8 (4 x 200 mm + 4 x 140 mm). So it seems I might as well let the fan controller controls all 8 fans. Or on the other hand, I can let the motherboard control 4 of 8 key fans, say the front, back, the pivot and 1 of the top fan.
I never own a case that c/w a fan controller, so I need your input on this. What's the normal rules of engagement on this?
