Fancontrol. Software or hardware-what's best and do I need?
Hello!
I´m just about to build a hopefully silent computer. Apparently I have to make three posts first so I'lljust flame myself then.

I will be using Antec Solo as chassi and an Asus m4a785-v http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=fcsXWSxnhzZE9rnR as mobo and I´m wondering how to with the fans (both cpufan and the 3 chassifans. Should I use hardware fancontrol like this Zalmanthing http://zalman.co.kr/ENG/product/Product ... sp?idx=208 or should I go with the mobobuilt-in q-fan and cool´n´quiettechnology? Trying to figure out what that program really do and if it works in Ubuntu.
Finally, is it complete overkill to use 3 chassifans? Will use these things:
Thankful for help!
