Vantec Nexus Fan Controller Review- Continued

 

Design

The Nexus Fan Controller is well built and of high quality.  The PCB is a cool deep blue in color.

The front of the bezel contains a piece of clear plastic with 5 LED's embedded in between each knob.  This is what gives it that cool "ring" lighting effect when powered on.  Vantec made this Rheobus quite simple to install.  On the rear, you'll notice 4 fan headers.  That's right!  No more soldering, bare leads to play with or screw-in connectors!  Just plug in the included extension cables and your ready to go.  This Rheobus is installed in just minutes!  It's "U" Type housing resembles that of the Lian Li faceplates and are designed for easy installation.

So how does it look installed on the case?  Let's take a look.

Installation was a snap.  As you can see, even though it has that painted look, it still looks great on the Lian Li.

Above are shots of the device powered on under low light.  Looks great doesn't it?  I can tell you it looks even better in person.  We hooked it up to 4 80mm case fans and all worked well.

 

Lights off!

The lighting effect is stunning.  Especially in person.

 

Conclusion

Vantec has done well with this fan controller.  They have provided not only a product that is of high quality and highly useful, but they have done it with a bit of style as well.  Its great looks and functionality make it a great addition to any case.   Installation is a breeze and it's price tag is highly reasonable.  Vantec continues to provide the overclocking & modding community with high quality products that look great and add style to the ever-changing look of PC's today.  The Nexus fan controller is no exception.
