Evening peeps,
I'm about to buy four Scythe Gentle Typhoon AP-14s, three as exhaust and one as intake in the empty 5.25 bays. Now, I've read the xbitlabs round up, and the GTs apparently consume 5 times less than other fans? That seems crazy. While most fans seem to need 4-5 Watts the GT AP-14 needs less than one (and 0.049A)? That's freaking amazing.
Which would, if all this is true, mean I can hook up 3 of them to one channel of my 600T fan controller. According to a rep on their forum each channel can handle 6W and 0.5MA (pretty sure he meant 0.5A as half a milliamp would mean it can't run anything). Three GTs would only use up 3W and 0.15A, well within the range the controller can handle, right? My single Cooler Master Megaflow will need more than those three (although I've read that you can't hook that one up to a controller because it uses proprietary somethings or others).
