Getting an Antec Lanboy Air tomorrow, and just had the bright idea of loading out the side facing me (rather than the front) with my front panels for easier access. I'm going to try and max out the fans on the case (so 15, since I should be able to mount an additional one on the front, and my heatsink supports two, so that should make up for the three lost). What I'd like to do is have some toggle switches that I can use to control the fans (whether they are powered on at all or not) plus a fan controller to control fan speed, but I'm not 100% sure how I would rig this up, or if I even could (I'm thinking I could wire up some switches like these to some 3 pin fan connectors which I then attach a 4 pin molex adapter to (I am going to be testing this on my old PSU with cheap fans, just in case I mess up so I don't burn out a bunch of new expensive equipment).
Or am I going about this the wrong way, and is there a product that I'm missing that would do this easily?
EDIT: Also the reason for rigging them directly to three pin versus the four pin molex, is I'd like to eventually replace the cheap fans with more expensive, more reliable fans. Just not spending $12 a fan if I might mess them up.
