Hey,

I have 4 Corsair AF140's in a Corsair 350D and am having problems with noise... I got a Scythe KQ01, ran it at the lowest setting ( 40% or 5,6V) and can still just about hear the fans... So I took it back today and am looking for a new fan controller. I've heard that NZXT has some problems with Corsair fans which is a shame since I like their controllers :/ I don't want to use up my 5,25" bay for aesthetic reasons so I opted for 3,5" fan controllers but I found out I can always mount 5,25" backwards. I found two controllers

1. A Lian-Li Pt fan controller - Just what I need in a 3,5" bay and has more headroom (20% - 100% )

2. Some Akasa fan controller I just came across. Have no idea if it's alright or what but it can switch the fans off completly...

Which is my best bet ?? Thanks !
