Fan controller
My new computer build is going to be focused highly on cooling the system. The case has two 80mm fans, the CPU cooler I've chosen is a Cooler Master Geminii with two 120mm fans and the GPU cooler is an Arctic Cooling Accelero Twin Turbo with two 80mm fans. Of course I will be using Arctic Silver or whatever is the latest and greatest compound.
Here;s the deal though....everything I have read says that the typical setup either is too hot or too noisy depending on how you set it up. So, I've been looking into fan controllers but I keep running into walls. I'd prefer something that I can control manually if I want but also controls the fan speed automatically based on the temperature of each sensor. I know there is software to control the CPU fan speed but I have seen nothing for GPU and case.
And so, I'm seeking recommendations for what to do to get the best cooling when needed and the quietest when idle or running at low processing demands.
Once again folks, THANKS!!!!
EDIT: I forgot...I'm also installing a Corsair Dominator memory fan assy over my 4GB of memory...and the memory has heatsinks attached as well.
