Fan controller?
I've been searching for a while, but I haven't been able to find anything. Does anyone know if there is a flush 3.5 inch bay fan controller available? I don't have a spare 5.25 inch bay  and my fans are loud, and my temps are low, but I want to find a middle ground lol. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Pugh Technologies

Unfortunately, no. I think it has to be a touch screen, as my case (Thermaltake Armor series A90) has a door over the bays that is about 2 mm away from the 3.5 bay, and about 6 away from the 5.25 bays | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Pugh Technologies

The aerocool looks good, unfortunately the lian li looks a little better, but uses technology that apparently makes LED fans blink. I think I'm going to try out the aerocool, but I just wish newegg sold it, since I'm ordering more memory from them. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Pugh Technologies

No, unfortunately. I didn't foresee this problem when i bought the case D: but it's a very small space between the door and the bay. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Pugh Technologies

It should have enough room for an optical drive to open between the fins? If it does then the Ultra would work fine as it's only 3.5" mount and the outside knobs are inset a bit. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number A blend of brains, brawn and dumb luck !
