I've had my computer for about six months now and everything was great. I got a new cpu cooler a few months ago (kraken x61) and installed in on the top of my pc. The CPU temps I was getting weren't the greatest so I changed to orientation to the front of my pc. While I was working in there I had to move the positions of the fans that were previously at the front of my case to the top. after I rerouted them into the fan controller I turned the pc on and smoking began rising from the fan contoller. When the controller is not plugged in no smoke is visible. Any ideas so i can use all 5 of my fans?
