Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Mint 9 In the Crust |
IT WORKS!
I have it installed on the front of my computer, now controlling 3 of 4 fans, my UV cathodes (or red), and replacing the start switch.
So it is not COMPLETELY finished, but I need a freaking break for a day or two. I worked on it all of today for almost 6 hours straight.
Here it is: ![[Project] Fan Speed Controller-finished-close.jpg](http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/overclocking-case-mods/79338d1276810048t-project-fan-speed-controller-finished-close.jpg) ![[Project] Fan Speed Controller-finished-lit.jpg](http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/overclocking-case-mods/79339d1276810048t-project-fan-speed-controller-finished-lit.jpg) ![[Project] Fan Speed Controller-finished-dark.jpg](http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/overclocking-case-mods/79340d1276810048t-project-fan-speed-controller-finished-dark.jpg)

Thanks Johnathan.
Of things I would want to fix from my experience so far, here is a list:
1. Longer power cables
2. Better connections
3. Have both male and female molex power connectors

No need, I have the 4th pot sitting on my desk, just need to solder it up and wire it.
Just needed a break today. I was happy to get it as done as I did.
