Default Zalman ZM-MFC2 Fan Controller

AntiM has a new review up of the Zalman Multi Fan Controller ZM-MFC2. This baby is sick! Not only can it control your fans by their RPM but it also monitors up to 4 temperatures within your case and it will also show you the system's power consumption! Wow... this is truly a must have from Zalman.

Check it out here.

Great review! I would say it's worth the money. Too bad it doesn't have the USB connector though.

Hi Gizmo I have a Thermaltake Xavior case with slide in mounts, would this product work with my case? The fan controller that came with my case gave up the ghost about 6 months ago.

The specs say 60-5940 RPM, that is for the 3 wire fans and the PWM?

It would work with rail systems, but it would not provide the tension needed for the rear ends of the rails to stay in the tracks. This means that any pressure on the front panel could drive the ZM-MFC2 further into the case.

Yep - you can set each channel to try and hit 60 to 5940RPM - your fans may not be able to run at those speeds though, so bear that in mind

@MasterP,

Excellent, I have a 220mm fan that runs ~600RPM that I haven't been able to control with my Thermaltake Hardcano. Looks like it's time for a change.
