Perfect companion to your custom loop
Using this instead of the CPU temp probe allows your BIOS to control your pump and fan speeds based on the coolant temperature. This enables more silent operation and proper temperature management.
Pro
- Easy to install and connect
- Nice finish
- Works well with motherboard temperature sensor header
Functionally good, aesthetically ok
Gives a distance from the sensor to the cover, somewhat disturbing. In the second picture you can see the problem somewhat exaggerated, but even if screwed as tightly as possible, a certain distance remains.
Perfect
Pro
- Measures to the nearest tenth of a degree
- Simple look
- Compatible with many motherboards
- Seal is very strong
- Price / Performance
Beautiful piece
Pro
- Relatively small
does what it should
The cable is a bit short, without an extension the sensor cannot be installed everywhere in the loop (depending on the position of the connector on the mainboard and the size of the whole build).
In addition, the cable is permanently connected to the sensor housing - screwing it in is a bit fiddly, but when it is screwed in, the position of the cable is given and may not be laid as nicely as one would like.
Otherwise: everything is top.Pro
- install, plug in, running
Contra
- Cable a little short
- Cable permanently connected to sensor housing
Simple and easy to use
Tested on two am4 ASUS strix boards that I have, no problems. Easy to install looks discreet and sleeved cable. No complaints.
Pro
- Easy to integrate in a loop
- Included adapter
