Im planning to run a water cooling loops with radiators in push and pull. This is going to take alot of fans, more than the motherboard has to give.

But the fans will always be running at full blast, meaning that they will be loud, and just wasting power when on idle.
What i would like to do is connect all the fans from a radiator to a hub, and controll all those fans simultaneously.
For example, connect the 8 fans from a 480mm rad to a hub and control their speed alone, and do the same with every other radiator.
Is there any way that i connect a set of fans to a hub, and control the speed, whether it be by connecting that hub to a fan controller or maybe a dial on the hub or something? Or am i going to have to resort to getting like 4 fan controllers, essentially taking up all of my 5.25 bays (which i need for my dvd drive, card reader, and res.
