[plunkmaster]

yo James D is the liquid cooling connected to the fan controller?

[SirJamesDTech]

@plunkmaster No, that wouldn't be a good idea...nor possible I don't believe

[breakjai]

hi can you tell me what it is called the screen that has liquid you have with the Scythe Kaze Master

[SirJamesDTech]

@breakjai That was my watercooling reservoir at the time

[unokilo321]

hey James, I watched the video a while back when you first did it, and didn't really put any thought into it before, but I was wondering, you know those nzxt black sleeved 3 pin fan extensions? do you think you can buy six of those and use them to plug in the back of the fan controller? just a thought I might be picking one of these up later this week, and if you think it would work I might pick up some fan plug in extensions while i'm at it, i'm going to be getting the 8 pin and 24 pin cables.

[SirJamesDTech]

@unokilo321 It's definitely worth a shot! Shouldn't cost you a heck of a lot to try it.

May I ask a question, I accidentally ordered 2x 5400 (not realising how loud they are) typhoon fans, they are waaaaaaaaay to loud for my gaming pc. Would buying this controller allow me to slow them below 5400, or are they locked at 5400?

many thanks

[Ajkane1997]

@nousername21 Yup!

[nousername21]

Could I use this if my motherboard supports only one case fan?

@TheWoWRevelation spray paint

[john0995q]

i got the same and my 4th channel is broken the fan is at full speed and can't turn it down(broken) and i used to control 5fans at 1 channel

[Syrius187]

the temp. sensors... how do you install them...? Do you put it between your heatsink and cpu or what? same with video card?

[Filo011]

man ur fans are freaking strong

[roel9101]

Can you connect the controller to case fans with a 2 wire/pin molex connection? I would really like to control my fans in one spot instead of having to reach to the back for 3 of them. My understanding is it will but it will probably not read RPMs.

love the arnie poster
