Temperature Gauges

[meat2783]

I was wondering if it is possible to install temperature gauges (like the kind used in a car) in a computer case (like the Aspire X-Cruiser). Anyone know where I would be able to purchase gauges in the right temp ranges? Thanks to all those that reply.

Yes. But don't you think that analog gauges on digital equipment are a bit incongruous???

Welcome to Anandtech meat2783, good to*meet*you

Never mind these two above me. Someday they will help you, just not today.

I kind of agree that it is a bit incongruous :roll:

To be honest idk. But i was looking for repo-vintage ivory radio knobs for my
Sunbeam rheobus. So to a degree,i understand, it's a link to the past.

Seems like you could mod a 5.25" bay cover to fit something like this into.

Thanks to everyone who replied. JBDan, I thought of the Musketeer by Coolermaster the only thing is that I would like 3 temp gauges instead of the fan control, etc. I know that an analog isn't the best idea for reading a digital temp, but I personally like the look of the round gauges to a LCD screen. I may just go take a peek at an auto parts place to see what I can dig up.
