I have the bitspower g1/4 temp sensor sold at microcenter installed to the t_sensor port on my crosshair 7 board. I love having it and being able to compare my coolant temp with ambient and cpu/GPU load and idle temps. I think it cost me $13 bucks when I got it. I use hwinfo64 to read it.
I match my fan speed to it in bios, but it doesnt work quite as I expected it to. With a typical idle temp of 25c, I have my curve set like:
Low - 20c - 20%
Mid - 50c - 50%
High - 75c - 85%
This is obviously ludicrous because my typical idle temp is 25c and load temp no higher than 36c (beefy loop), but without the skewed temp targets the fans tend to ramp up and down like i should have installed a hyper 212 in the first place.
