I was about to spring for one of these, but realized that I still have one more question.
My PC is watercooled, so it tends to idle near room temp easily with the two main case fans only, which are very quiet at their lowest settings. The 3 fans on the rad probably aren't needed (surely not for an idle PC), but once the hot weather comes and I'm gaming, its difficult to keep the system cool to my liking.
So, can this be set in some manner to shutoff a fan(s) when the temperature is below a certain setting? It seems it can ramp the voltage down all the way to 0%, but will this do what I want to do? I wouldn't want to burn out my fans if the controller tries to run them at 10% or some other setting too low to start spinning for long periods of time.
