Does anyone have any experiences connecting a fan control panel to the supplied fans that come with the Antec 900 case?

Any recommendations or gatchas would be great.

Any issues with the Molex connection end and control panels?
Anyone use a control panel unit with temperature sensors?

Thanks

Mark

But does it really make any difference?

I have a Q9550 with a TRUE, OC'd to 3.6 GHz, in an Antec 900 case. P95 load temps are 58 - 61 C with the fans set on LOW. Changing the fan switches to MED or HIGH has no effect on temperatures. Good thing too. With fans set on LOW, it's pretty quiet. With the fans set on HIGH, the case sounds like a freakin' vacuum cleaner setting on the desk.

Make a difference?..........heck no....lol

I am just able to control the fans now, where before I had to take the side cover off and reach and find the individual fan controls.
The temp probes work but are useless I still monitor using RealTemp, CPU-z and Presision.....

Bottom line it's a new inexpensive toy for me. I will post picture this weekend.
