DeepCool launches frameless RGB fans that you can control over Wi-Fi

You can use your smartphone to adjust the speed and lighting of these fans. Fans are not overly complicated for fancy devices.

Before I proceed further I'd like to mention a few points to give you a clear picture as to what to expect from this configuration - This configuration is aimed at daily to office use along with helping school kids for their school project etc The build should be future proof and should last the user for over a year or two without any upgrade. Upgrade should be easy and economical with minimum change of components. It should be balanced over all with all the components in sync & at par without overpowering or unde...
