Cooler Master Areogate II questions

[QueBert]

Hi, I just installed a Cooler Master Areogate II in my case today, I have read numerous reviews that said how this was a small pain to get working correctly.

Right now I have the HD & a case fan running to the fan control. I'm not sure if my case fan supports it, but I know my CPU fan has speed control. It came with a bracket to do this. I cannot get the Areo to control either fans speed. The Case fan (bought today) is a CoolerMaster Neon 80mm. Since I know my CPU fan is adjustable and I can't, I'm guessing maybe my case one is too.

This is a cool ass device. I got the one without the HD rack, which was 10 bucks more and didn't seem to do much in the way of HD cooling. $40 bucks @ PCClub, I ordered in the store yesterday, and picked it up today

anyone have one of these are care to comment. I hope I don't have to run out and buy all new fans just to get RPM control over them.

one other question, I mounted the thermal sensor under my CPU, which I've heard gives the most accurate reading. It's showing up as 81.5f right now, which obviously is WAY low. I looked on Cooler Masters web site and it's showing the sensor's wires pulled apart and each lead in a slightly different location. Would this make that much of a difference? I'd like the have as accurate of a reading as possible.

one other thing, my cpu fan, a Cooler Master X-Dream has a fan control bracket. But I can't use the Aero RPM control on my cpu. What am I not doing? I have the case fan RPM working fine now. If worse comes to worse I'll pick up a new CPU fan. but for $10 bucks this fan/heatsink is pretty damn sweet! I don't wanna drop 30 or more on something bigger/better.

thanks.
