I realize this is getting pretty lame, honestly i do lol, so this is the last thing i'll ask.

Can you reccomend to me a fan controll that is:

1)Cheap <30 bucks
2)Has a good range of voltages (preferably 5-12v so i dont accidentally turn my fan off)
3)Has 2 (two) 4-pin female to 3-pin female adaptors
4)Doesnt make any buzzing sounds
5)Is good 😛

Thanks alot, i promise i wont post again, its just that everything i've found doesnt have all of the above, usually. Thanks!
 
You can look at some of the ones listed here and see if they have the features you like. The lower priced ones are further down on the first page with some more on the second page too.
 
The folks over at Silent PC Review like the Sunbeam controller available at SVC and Jab-Tech among others. It's reputed to cause less fan clicking noise than some others when throttling down the fans. Also, it has a higher power rating than some other controllers so it will be fine if you link up some fans on the same channel. I'm not sure but I did order one - should be here later this week.

just a sugguestion but instead of buy a piece of hardware to control you fans have you concidered a program such as SpeedFAN
Im not sure if your hardware is supported, but it might be a free solution to control your fan.

just a thought.

Yeah, but mine dont connect into my mobo. Thanks anyway 🙂

And about the sunbeam...where did you order from? seems to be outta stock.

Also, im scared that the voltages, if the knob gets turned too low itll stop my fan (it doesnt tell you when it does, ive read in reviews) and my pcll over heat. But it should shut off itself if the cpu gets too hot (which is all that really matters, no?), and also the hsf should cool it adequately even w/o rear/front fans. Thanks!
 
You're not going to find a controller that matches your specifications 100% and so you'll have to find a controller that comes close and then buy the wire adapters seperately.
 
Well, i FINALLY ORDERED IT! i got the sunbeam rheobus! THanks so much!

now i just need one more 4 pin female to 3 pin female...yuck
