Computer Fan Controller

Computer fan controller and fan setup question.?

Im looking to get a bunch of fans for my computer by having a 360mm Radiator and a 240mm Radiator that i am thinking of having a push pull fan configuration on both. This would be 10 fans just for that alone plus probly an additional few in the case. What is a good fan controller that is able to fit many fans while still being able to measure rpms and temp? Also, is there a way, or is it bad to splice 2 fan wires together to connect with one switch or connector?

Well..first…I assume you mean the two rads are Swiftech one that take 2 120mm fans and the other that take 3 120mm fans to get 10 fans?..two…your starting a hurricane! the weather Dept. might want to know of this! NO its not good to splice fans together especially the RPM sensor wire…it will give a false reading…fans in push-pull should be equal RPM’s/CFM or you will get one blocking the other You must be doing some horrendous overclocking! here are some controller’s..http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=fan+controller+5.25
Your going to need a few of them!.
