Hey so I am looking into getting this a Delta 120mm powerful case fan. Specifically one of either of these
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=Delta+Electronics+FFB1212EH
They appear the same except one has a 3 pin and the other a 4 pin.
I assume one of these would be too much for the motherboard I plan to be using, so I am considering getting a fan controller.
Though I don't know which fan controller would be good and compatible with whichever choice. Here is one fan controller I am taking a look at but I have no idea on how to set it up since I've never gotten one before.

These are the motherboard, psu and case I will be using.
Motherboard: http://www.amazon.com/Asus-P8Z77-V-LK-Intel-Motherboards/dp/B007RIFKTY/ref=cm_lmf_tit_2
PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153136
Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133024
So please can someone explain to me..
1) Which fan would be a better choice and with what fan controller?
2) Also would I would be able to use the fan without a fan controller and connect it to my PSU without connecting it to the mobo?
3) Anything else I should know/advice?
