Default davinci or xtreme?
Looking to lower my operating temp a bit with a thermostat and fan controller kit. I'm leaning towards a 17x thermostat. Most people think that 160 is too low. I have some questions regarding the controller.
[1] Which is easier to install?
[2] Are they the same functionally?
[3] Which is cheaper?
[3] Any differences between the 2?

Thanks,

I have the Davinci, No complaints. The wires are all plug and play, no splicing. i am assuming all fan controllers work off the same principle. HTH...
