Hi,
I'm looking to control a number of fans on a water cooling setup. I'd much prefer the fans to be controlled by the LCD.
Do you manufacture an LCD that has high output GPO's that also come with temperature sensors that I could place on/in resevoirs,radiators, CPU blocks etc?
Regards

Rimmer,
In a word, Yes. Check out this
thread which was posted a couple days ago.
Overclock3D recently reviewed the MX5 and has decent tutorial.
And
TwistedMods has a review for the MX4.
Both the
MX4 and
5 have four high power GPO's, and the
MX2/
3/
6all have 3.
They also all support temp probes.

I'm also looking for an in line flow sensor and in line temperature gauge that will work injunction with the LCD panel. I want to be able to monitor temp settings in a water cooling loop and adjust fan speed automatically via temp sensors and the LCD rather than manual intervention.
Loop has 10mm outer 8mm inside diameter.
Do you have any recommendations.
Thanks

Well you will want to pick an LCD that goes well with your case, so I'll leave that up to you. I have been recommending
This flow meter but there are others that will work, just make sure that they say something about using a "3-pin Fan header connector".
Also I pulled what tom said out of that last thread:
"What you can do with monitoring CPU temp, ram usage, etc, is use the software that comes with the display, LCDC. Information on LCDC can be found at
http://www.lcdc.cc/about.htm The information is sent from LCDC via other software plugins, so you will need to use some external software like hardware system monitor, which can be downloaded at
http://www.hmonitor.com/ Other things can be monitored using the dallas one wire temperature probes."
Let us know what you end up doing.
