I have that one but in silver. Keeps my Panaflows nice and quiet. I highly recommend the Sunbeam.

I have the Sunbeam and I love it. Works well.

I do not recommend the CM Aerogate 3 at all. I had one, and I hated it. Disconnected it right away. It is slow in changing fan speeds, so much lag when pressing the buttons, and it makes a very loud beep with each button press. Definately was very annoying.

The Aerogate 1 looks good and simple like the Sunbeam, but only comes in silver. So if you are looking for black, I'd recommend the sunbeam hands down.

I have Akasa Fan Controller Pro and it`s great. I changes fan speed in a second plus it looks great too.

I second the Sunbeam recommendation for a simple effective solution.

Now for something more complicated - Does anyone know of a controller that can give all fans 7v on startup and then back it down to 5v once windows has booted? Many fan's won't startup with 5v but will run fine with them.
