S swegname Honorable Jan 8, 2014 325 0 10,810 Mar 8, 2014 #1 I have the CM Storm Stryker, I want to add 2x AF120 Quiet Editions on it. Do I have to get the PWM ones? Or does the front panel control the voltage. Is the front panel able to control the non PWM fans with the + and - buttons?

Solution cin19 Mar 9, 2014 The case fan controller only has the 3pin power connectors ( for 4 fans) so you have to use the 3pin one to connect the fan that means it will control the fans by voltage. If you fans have the 4pin you need the adapter like this ( the fans may come with that) http://www.moddiy.com/products/Fan-4%252dPin-PWM-to-3%252dPin-Sleeved-Adapter-Cable.html
