  • Do you know how to fix the voltage issue?

  • This is still the problem. The fan controller is making the sound because when I plug the fans straight into a molex connector there is no sound. It seems the fan controller is sending a pulsing electrical current to my fans causing them to buzz like they are.

  • @Saricia80 I would use an Elko

  • I have an idea as to the problem! Your connecting the power input to 12 volts for both the yellow and red wire to power? I think the red is for 5v and yellow for 12v . I may be mistaken.

  • you need pwm fans

  • Are these fans more than 10w?

  • i have the same fan controller and mine never buzzed but it stops controlling fans and does not notice a fan being pluged into it

  • Damn iPhone...try the Aerocool Touch 1000, it's similar to the Sentinel 2, but has four big beefy heatsink'd MOSFETs for power regulation, and not PWM like this one.

  • I got mine, I'm running it in a HAF X, so I have a 220mm front intake, a 200mm side intake, a 200mm top exhaust, a 140mm rear exhaust, plus an additional Antec SpotCool 70mm for my hot-as-hell X58, all running on this controller. I have had NO problems with this buzzing, maybe Cooler Master fans work better, though the Antec one works good too. Maybe I got a later revision of it that corrects this, or something. Either way, if you're having problems with your high performance fans, try the Aero

  • PWM Coolers? theres an Adapter availible

  • I won one of these at a LAN party and haven't had any issues.
