Hello Everyone,
Heres my new system spec:
Motherboard
EVGA nForce 780i SLI nForce 780i (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Processor
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz
Memory
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-Corsair TwinX DDR2 XMS2 Dominator 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit (x2)
Cooler
Zalman CNPS9700-NT nVidia Tritium CPU Cooler
Case
CoolerMaster Stacker 832 - Black Trim (No PSU)
GFX Card
EVGA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB SSC GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)
Optical Drive
Pioneer DVR-212D 18x18 DVD±RW Serial ATA Dual Layer ReWriter
Network
Belkin F5D7001UK 125Mbps Wireless Desktop PCI Network Adapter
Power Supply
850W Coolermaster Real Power Pro RS-850
HDD
Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB 5000AAKS SATA-II 16MB Cache
Although im not settled on the HDD. My question is, case fans, ive never ever had to put in additional case fans before, but my new case supports 9!
1) Where does the power come from to support 9 fans?
2) Whats the best way to wire it?
3) Fan controllers typically only control 4 fans, is there a way to control sets of fans?
What I would like to do is get something like the Zalman ZM-MFC2 fan controller:
Fan 1 - The 4 window fans,
Fan 2 - Roof/Floor
Fan 3 - Rear
Fan 4 - Front
Whats the easiest, and most importantly the cleaning way of doing this? Is there any decent articles on how to do this?
Thanks in advance
