viRtuAlinsaniTy Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 I have just purchased a Thermaltake Case (see below) and it comes with a temp sensor linked to a readout display on the front panel. At the moment, it is just sitting in the case thereby giving me the temperature inside the case/mobo - but I would like it to give me the temperature of the CPU itself - does anyone know how to go about this or how to use the sensor correctly? I don't have to dislodge and re-seat my HS&F do I? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 Yes, you'll need to take the HSF off.... Remove the HSF... Place the sensor next to the CPU die, not below or over, but beside... Secure the sensor with some tape... duct tape, not recomended. Scotch works well, or the tape that should have come with teh sensors. Reapply thermal compound to the CPU Place the HSF back on.
