I'm looking to buy a fan controller for either a 5.25 bay or external that can control 4+ fans via the CPU 4 pin fan port.

Basically I want all the fans to run like the cpu fan when it gets hot, so i can have a quieter system when the computers not under load.

Anyone seen anything like this or know of a way to do this manually?

Ive tried looking around and cant really seem to find my answer.

i've been looking for a fan controller too, but i find that most of them just don't last too long, i think because of the resistors that have to handle the excess volts; overheating and usually poor soldering. Some people say that they just about catch on fire; glowing red!

anyways, here

I wouldn't know it spending money and nice fan controller is worth it since it seems there seems to be high failure rates and those nice LEDs dont usually last.
