Anyone know about this one? http://www.lamptron.com/products/view/Fan_Controller_FC2
I want a simple black fan controller with blue lighting to match my CM 840 case so i can controll the top 2 200mm fans and the rear hdd fan and the bottom intake fan.  I feel I dont need these at full blast when just browsing the web. 
 
The FC-2 looks perfect but I saw a few bad reviews.
 
I really like the fc-5 http://www.lamptron.com/products/view/Fan_Controller_FC5 but I am not sure I want to mess with temp probes as that may be an unneccessary pain in rear.  How hard are temp probes to manage?

I have tried about every fan controller out there, the FC2 did have a problem on the early models, made the fans sound wierd when not at full speed, this problem has been since fixed.
My favorite fan controller is this one  http://www.lamptron.com/products/view/Fan-Atic:_5-port
 
I have some in the 5v and some with the 7v.. I like the 7v model better. You could run all your fans off of one switch if you want, you can also run the internal lights . The reason I like it is because I seems like I either want the fans quiet, or maxed out for benching. Might be just me . lol

The fan-atic looks awesome.  I have seen it before but i thought that the switches were on or off and i didn't realize that it had that much customization to it.  Cool.  I just have to think if it gonna look good with my 840.  Thanks!
