    Im think of buying one of these or these the software is meant to be great ...but im wondering has anyone out there seen anything that can control up to 10 fans or even 13 fans ...the case takes 10 but i want to put 3 on each side of the black ice extreme 3 ,which brings it to 13 ...i have the aerogate2 already which will take care of 4 max ...Most of whats on the market seems to to only handle 4 ...if anyone has seen a good one that can handle more than four let me know ...

    How r u gonna run the 13 fans??? R they molex r 3 pin?? If 3 pin why not just drop the voltage down on all the fans to 5v r somfin and then just have the fans on the rad hooked up to the aerogate r similar so u can wack up the speed for overclocking. Although with six 120mm fans on the rad u will never need to run them at full wack...

    I have a Vantec NXP301 and I have two fans attached to each dial without any problems. Of course this does mean that each set of two has to run at the same speed which I suppose is what you're trying to avoid?

    My Digital Doc 5+ supports 8 fans, works great.
