well, not quite sure bout that, tested on 12v 0.32A, and the fan works fine, the fan wont go full speed at any rating coz using LM317 doesn't give exact 12v output, u'll get ~ 95% of the speed.

LM317 is 1.5A.. if u dont exceed, it should work fine.. anyway, RM40, u earn quite a lot wor.. haha..
u might wanna consider active cooling as well for the LM317 cause it can get very hot when u load it @ around 1A..

U r absolutely right about the the LM317, thanx for commenting, i was also not sure exactly, just followed the diagram, electronics newbie here.. rclxms.gif

walauweh.. advertising content deleted.. hahahahaaa.... never knew that.. thanx ianho rclxs0.gif


anyway @ lolhalol

nice controller dude..

about the clearence, i suppose if i put it between pci slots it may touch.. but if put at the lowest slot, the clearence is enough not to be touching with anything, plus any adjustment is minor, .. D.I.Y. maaa.... heheheee..

Cheers peeps! party.gif
