since u have no knowledge on how to do it....i suggest starting with something alot simpler.... a simple high-off-low switch.
what this basically does is switch the voltage going to the fan..so if u put it to 12v..itll get full speed and if at 5/7v ull get the low speed... the lower the volts, the slower the fan. taken from Cliff's Fanbus 12v/7v switch 12v/5v switch wat u need is an on/off/on switch. wires and all necessary connectors to connect it to ur PSU and fan. heatshrink/electrical tape bla bla bla...(All this u can get in Jalan Pasar) this is VERY easy to do..and i successfully did a few when i had ZERO soldering knowledge. its just a matter of following the very simple diagrams in the link and u have urself a fan controller. FYI, i made this to control my 1x12cm and 1x8cm Delta FFBs and alot of other noisy fans i used to have in my case. EDIT: i had 1 switch controlling the 2 FFBs and 1 more switch controlling around 4 fans. point to note: whatever fan ur trying to control, ensure that they are able to run at 7v or 5v (whichever one ur planning to do). reason i state this is because in the case of my 4x 12cm Delta FFBs, only ONE of them can work at 5v. the other 3 wont, even if i give it a 'kick start'. but ALL of them can work at 7v.

QUOTE(angelic-x @ May 30 2007, 10:33 PM) Nope, it's easy. Finished it just yesterday, works perfectly fine and the total cost for the components are cheap too. Got everything from a shop in Jalan Pasar (except the molex). And well, you surely need basic soldering skills which you've probably learned in KH classes.=) Good for controlling noisy fans... If you don't wanna take the risk of making it yourself, I saw bombman's 1 channel fan controller which is very nice. Can ask him if he makes them for sale. |

QUOTE(bombman @ Jun 10 2007, 01:31 AM) Though it's not rocket science, it's not as easy as u may think. Simpler said than done. Try instead askin' modders here whether anythin' they did was easy Totally agree, won't b easy to solder things to the board when u don't plan it properly b4 hand. Also, have to make sure to cut stuffs to suit and most importantly, avoid short circuit since ur casing is very conductive. |

After that no need 4 any other modders 2 come in here ready |
