Cons: non

Pros: Price, nice finish, included front & back IO panel controls, simple to use
Comment:
I did a very exhaustive search, before deciding on this particular fan controler. Was looking for one with a round knob to dial down the fan speed with for less noise, able to control 3 fans which could be housed on front of case or moded to be placed where ever I might want. As well I was hoping that I could split them apart to be used as individual controlers with different knobs installed on it. This gave me all the options I was looking for! It Comes with Front and back panel options that can be removed from the plate they are housed in with knobs that are removable and hook up to a central control panel you just place in the case somewhere out of sight. I used it in a 1932 Victor radio cabinet which allowed me to place original round radio tuning knobs on the fan dials placed individualy. I was able to use fan spitters so up to 6 fans can be controled(2 per Dial), I have since picked up 2 more of these as I really like way they can be used. If you want a simple device that can control fan speed, that looks nice, and can be used in differentways as needed ,buy this!!

Cons: Connector board came unglued from housing with-in minutes of install

Pros: Has Back panel controllerworks
Comment:
This is a great solution to lower ther RPM's of my 3 case fans (on a silverstone GD05 HTPC case)The back pannel controller was worth the $$$ as I didnt want an unsightly controller on the front with a useless LCD display, I wanted the case to look clean and this being the only controller with the back pannel option filled my needs.one complaint: Connector board came unglued from housing with-in minutes of install, tried reheating glue to reattach but its cheap glue, so i now have double sided tape hodling it in place,(why didnt i RMA? it was only 25$ and the housing was already stuck to the inside of my case, so i fixed the issue) this gets a 4/5 because of the cheap glue, other than that this works fine. now i need another connector board to utilize the front controller on one of my other 5 pc's

Cons: -long wires-questionable converter unit-pricey

Pros: -Looks sleek-Aluminum build-Comes with two controllers for front or back use-Well designed, marked and installed knobs-long wires
Comment:
Good basic fan controller, controls 3 fans, CPU and the top and side fan for me since the case fans have only one setting(Lian Li PC07-P). It looks great, made from aluminum and the knobs feel solid. The installation was easy, and the wires are long so that you won't have trouble doing management in large cases. Though it being long also makes management a hassle. The included converter is a weird design since it requires a power source, though most PSUs ave it already, its kinda necessary. Too bad Silverstone did not integrate it with the aluminum controller but have an external one, though it does have double sided tape to stick to the internal of the case. At $38 its kinda expensive, but I needed one and this was the most reliable one I could fine(that was in stock too).

Cons: Bit messy for a small case

Pros: Good buildsimple3 controllers for 3.5"
Comment:
Really like the design and build. Only thing I didn't like about this was the amount of wires that were there. Would've preferred if the fans plugged directly into the controller and a single cable from that for the power. Not gonna say its a bad controller though, its built pretty solid and the knobs are tight.

Cons: Circuit board backing comes off. Would prefer a fully sealed controller unit.

Pros: Solid built
Comment:
Very well built and makes you appreciate the simplicity of a product that equates to longevity. Even the fan control knobs have little nipples to prevent loosening. It would of been better if they had the circuit board and controller area as an all in one but there is a benefit as well for ease of location and accessibility.

Pros: -Simple-Nice looking
Comment:
The only beef I had as well was the funky 3 to 2 pin setup on for the fans. Besides that it is great and does the job. It actually comes with a PCI mounted controller to in case one doesn't want to use the 3.5" console. The aluminum looks nice and classy as well.

Cons: akward setup (read summary for more info)

Pros: easy to use and setupfits in 3.5" bay without any grindingcomes with plenty of screwsgood quality finishcomes with 3.5" bay mounting or rear pci panel mountingvery long cables
Comment:
The only thing I didn't like about this product is the akward setup with the "three pin to two pin" converter board. The fan adapter goes into the 3pin header on the board, then the fan controller has a 2pin adapter that goes into that same header. Basically, that means the converter board will be floating in the middle of somewhere in your case.Intitially, I would of thought the converter board would be on the remote. but anyway, that is a minor problemThe cables are very long, perhaps a bit too long. But it can be easily tied up and tucked away into the 3.5" drive bay since there will be lots of room there.Overall, this product is a very good fan controller if you only need to control 3 fans. It's a lot less expensive and simpler than the other fan controllers if this is what you're looking for. Simple and easy to use.
