Fan controlling software(?)

[bokos]

Greetings to all...

I have a Gigabyte 965P-DS3 mobo, a thermaltake case, a blue orb II cpu ( intel E6300 1.86Ghz --OC--> 3.01Ghz ) cooler and 2x120mm case fans ( rear & front ). I'd like to be able to control fan speeds (manually and using software) because they are making a lot of noice at the time, but I can't find any appropriate program. ( Speedfan doesn't seems to work for controlling but only for monitoring -wrong- fan speeds at my system...).Using Gigabytes' soft I only managed to monitor their correct speeds.
Do you know any other software that might help me?

Thank you in advance,
Angelos.

its a fan controller bay, it works really good

-the only software i know of is speed fan but give the fan controller a shot

Speedfan will work. You need to change the settings to software controlled.

Configure -> Advanced (then choose chipsefrom drop down) -> Change PWM modes to "software controlled"

You should then be able to manually control the fans from the main page as well as set up automatic control.

If Speedfan doesn't work, than I'd a Silverstone FP33 or the controller uber_g showed.

Silverstone makes black and aluminumm and they're actually 2-for-1's. Each unit has a 3.5 bay unit controller and an expansion slot controller in each package:

Thanks for the tip OrangeGator..
The problem was that the fans were powered directly from the power supply ( instead of the mobo ), so SpeedFan was not able to control them... I changed the connection and now I control them properly... I'm planning to buy a hardware controller at the future, but at the time I want to be able to control them through software...

Thank you all for your help.

You're welcome. Speedfan is a great program once you figure everything out.
