    That would be the best choice. At least when you need to cool up the pc at hot summer days, you will have opportunity to install more than 8 fans

    I have the same controller here, but the resistors hit the soldering points of the PCB which is a possible problem which is why I didnt use it yet. Unfortunately I cannot see if your unit has any more clearance between the resistors and the PCB from the angle you shot the picture.

    If you like I can send you the original pics before they were resized from 3000 x 2000 + resolutions. But for that action, I will need your email or communication program address, skype or msn

    Does the controller make any noise? Thats my biggest concern.

    I can take fan noise, but the super high pitched noise some rheobus fan controllers make when turning down the voltage drives me nuts. The FC2 did that, I'm hoping it was the caps, and the solid state caps on the FC8 would solve that, but I want to make sure.

    No. The sample that I got didn't had any noise with our without fans. And I can recognize that high frequency noise that some products usually produce. Like PSUs.
