I ordered this unit because I wanted to bling out my case. When it came in the first thing I noticed was the shotty work on the board behind the screen. Whats with all the over use of glue. Anyway It was really simple to connect. But when I powered on the controller wasnt picking up 2 temps and wasnt controlling 1 fan. I plugged in a usb to test the ports and the trouble began. It started beeping and all the temps disappeared because the unit fried. RMA handled this very good and got me a new unit in good time. The second unit had a totally different board and looked in much better shape. It looks really cool as long as its eye level. Too expensive, not enough features, quality was okay the second time around and it performs well.

The only issue I had with this is the tape used to hold down the temp probes wouldn't stick even after cleaning the area with rubbing alcohol. Grabbed some fiber tape and all is well. Great Product. Quick Shipping.

This fan controller looks great installed. Works great. The only issues I have found is the temperature alarm is very subtle and hard to hear and the tape strips for the temperature sensors don't stick very well. Not really a big deal. just slide the temperature sensor in between the fins of the cooler.

Same review as GERRAD. I will just add that it's very very nice looking gadget. If your case need a bite of blusshing, go for it. Yes it's taking 2 bay but if you have a full tower you should have no problem at all. Once configured, the cool part of touch-screen is gone since you don't realy have to play with this often. Again, it boost the looks of your case by at least ten. The fan speed are only in 100rmp steps.....why... aren't we in 2010.

Makes your pc look very nice but the front panel is a bit too wide to make the whole thing fit like a CD drive. The headphone input on mine makes small scratchy noise. Includes long sata cables, has 4 pin connector for cpu fan, and 2 extra thermal sensors in case one is defective. Turning on/off the lcd screen is a bit tricky, but the touch surface on all other functions are big enough.

The fan controller is VERY nice. It includes all the cables and everything you need. The screen is VERY nice, and it's touch screen interface is very easy to use, as well, the screen can be turned off. The controller also remembers your settings, so that's very nice.The BIGGEST problem with this controller is that it doesn't flush mount on my Antec 902, which means that it also won't work on the 1200. I'm not too sure about the 300 or the regular 900. The black bezel is about 3mm too wide on each side, so you can't mount it all the way in.

Great product. Looks great in my CM690 case. Has long cable connectors to allow for great cable management. Easy to install. Connect power, connect the fans and place the temp sensors to where needed. Cheapest price on net so didn't even need to price match.

I purchased this fan controller to provide me with temperature information and fan speed control for additional fans installed on my case. The AeroCool Touch2000 controller adds a bit of interesting flash and dash to the front of my rather dull looking case. Provides 4 readouts for temperature, alarms for each temp probe, 4 fans speed controls, outputs for USB, SATA, and audio in/out. Additionally the package includes extra temp probes in case one might get ruined. A few things could be improved on the design however. Firstly, there is no method of dimming the display on the front. And if a fan is not plugged into the controller, the unit displays a set of flashing "0"s that can get annoying. Also the rear of the unit is rather unprotected and care must be taken to prevent damaging connectors when installing or assembling the PC. 2x 5.25" drive bays are eaten up by this unit, which is a bit excessive. But touch screen controls and outputs are nice.
