    Help Choose R7000 or RT-AC68U

    Case Fans - Fractal R4

    Anyone? Seems like I have three otpions: options: 1) Control through R4 with 3 fan controller (FLX fans needed) 2) Control through motherboard & ASUS Software (PWM fans needed) 3) Control through splitter & BIOS (PWM fans needed) What I really want to do is set the fans so that they adjust...
