It uses MBM5 and LCDC to display the information.

...from your motherboard's on board temp sensors. Most new motherboard (for about 2 years now) include a temp sensor in the cpu socket and one somewhere else on the motherboard. As henry says your lcd software gets these from a lovely little app called MBM5 but don't worry if this sound complicated... it's easy as pie to setup

Do they make a display that has a red face on it or anything like that? And do the displays that have a 20x4 or a 40x4 are they good?? i want a nice one (what is the size of the one up above??) also is there a program that lets you display system temps and display game stats??

The size is in the product code (doh!),
lk204 is 20x4
glk24064 (the one at the top) is 240x64 pixels (40x8)
etc...
