I wanted to "pimp" my case out a bit and was thinking one of those small LCD screens that you can set into the case that will display CPU temperature, fan speeds, etc. would be nice. Anyone know of a good unit that will do this? Would love to have CPU temp, GPU temp, everything else is just icing on the cake. It would be nice to have something like that so I can keep an eye on what's going on without having to keep a monitor running in the task bar that requires me to jump to the desktop to look at every now and again.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Not sure how they handle shipments to where you live, but xoxide.com's a good place for 'pimp your rig' stuff.

As above, I dunno if they ship to EU but it'll give you an idea what you're looking for.

Well if you guys can point me in the direction of a specific brand/model, I know I can get it here. This is Europe, not Africa.

Yeah, whatever on the shipping.

Anyway, it's more of a personal choice than a "tell me which brand" choice. It's your project and your screen, and it should show what you want it to show. Size, color and style is up to you. Just look around and check ratings. Plug it in, take a pic and post it on BF2S.

Well given what I posted that I want out of the screen, I was somewhat hoping that someone else had a similar setup in their own case. Color can always be changed.

There are quite a few 5.25" fan controllers out there with LCD screens that tell you the temperature of your components, though I believe you need to hook up individual temperature probes to the parts you want monitored. This could be a little annoying, especially if you're hooking one up to the GPU.
