    Need a fan controller that can control more than 10 fans?

    I am looking after a single fan controller that can control more than 10 fans , I am looking for it because I have added total 10 fans in my new rig and might have to add one more later. I have checked about the same on the web but I have not yet found one, can anyone here help me out in finding it out or suggest me a site from where I can get it. I need to get it as soon as possible so a quick reply for this will be highly appreciated.

    I have checked out for Scythe KQ02-SL Kaze Q12 but unfortunately no site is displaying it in stock. It seems as if the product has been discontinued. Is there any other option like it for me?? I wish I could have got it somewhere. If you have idea about any site selling it then let me know.

    I will suggest you to better go for 2 x 6 channel fan controller rather than getting one single 12-Channel Fan Controller. My system is having 9 fans currently but I don’t think that I will have to add more. I am using 2 x Lamptron FC8 8 Channel Fan Controller from a long time and never had any issue with I, If you want then you can get the same.

    Features:
    CNC Milled Front Panel
    Laser Etched Logo and Channel Lettering
    Customizable Channel LED's
    Up to 30 watts per channel

    Specifications:
    Dimension:148.5mm*42.5mm*76mm(5.25" Bay)
    Power Output:Up to 30 watts per channel
    Control Channel:8 Channels
    LED Color Available:White, Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Purple, Yellow
    DC Input:3 X +12v (Standard 4 Pin Molex)
    DC Output:0V- 12V DC
    Fan Connectors:8 X 3-pin connectors
    Recommend PSU wattage: 600w or higher

    I don’t think that there is any use of getting 2 x 6 channel fan controller rather get a single NesteQ FanMax 8-Channel Fan Controller and use a 1 to 3 Y-Adapter Splitter Power Cable for connecting the extra fans. I have being doing the same for my setup having 10 fans, NesteQ FanMax has LEDs for indicating the on/off status of all fans connected to it and has a Precise 6 to 12 volt adjustment range as well. Just go through its technical specification and see if you are getting impressed with it.
    • Dimensions (L x W x H) - 78mm x 149mm x 43mm
    • Material - Aluminum, Plastic
    • Connector type - 3-Pin & PWM compatible
    • LEDs - 2 blue LEDs for main switches (“Cooling Zones”), 8 LEDs for fan monitoring
    • Rated voltage (output) / -power - 6 ~ 12 volt / 6W per channel, 48W total
    • Rated voltage (input) - DC 12 volt (4-Pin standard molex)

    If you want to get a cheaper one then you can get ZALMAN MFC1 Plus-B Black 6 Channel Multi Fan Controller from newegg for Now: $39. There are other ones as well but I found this to be the best deal. You can check out its specification and features on newegg itself.
