Excellent
- Pros: Beatiful
Functional
can change setting on all 5 fans at once or individually
cheap for what it is
protective film on face that you can leave on for extra life of screen
- Cons: None
- Other Thoughts: Perfect fan controller, easy to install, and very nice looking.
Compatibility Issues
- Pros: Looks great, controls 5 fans, easy to figure out without a manual, installed in my P183 without issues.
- Cons: Only works with some fans! Beware of that lol, as other reviews have said, the R4-L2R series do not work with this control, which I also confirmed for myself. In addition, the R4-S2s doesnt work either, a 80mm Masscool didnt work, 2 different Antec TriCools did not work, and a 120mm Enermax did not work. In all these cases the fan would power on, but would produce a kind of grinding noise (testing each one by one, on each connector) so be warned you may have trouble.
- Other Thoughts: Why do so many companies no longer have phone support? Only deducted 1 egg since it really does seem like a great controller, would just be better if they listed compatible fans and such. Ended up researching my fans and what was the most popular fan controller in reviews and getting that one, something I should have done in the first place.
as advertised
- Pros: works as advertised
- Cons: just that sticking with the ASUS P6X58D stock fan control really would have been fine, and cleaner on the inside.
Also, not a perfect mount in a Coolermaster HAF 932, but easy to mod.
- Other Thoughts: Looks kinda neat for the kiddies.
