Howdy all ..
Wondering if anyone has a good strategy for connecting a thermal sensor, so as to monitor cpu temperatures.
I'm aware that one dosen't connect it to the thermal plate directly ... but ...
-- For an Athlon64 3000 S939 --
-- with the standard boxed fan --
---------------------------------------
# What would be a good location,
with regard to cpu monitoring ?
# How would you attach it ?
I figure, as the thermal plate is slightly raised, maybe, right up next to, but not on top of the plate, would be a good place.
Ordinary tape sounds a bit dicy to use too, as the adhesive would probably melt/leak over time. Possibly just a dab of past would be the better bet there.
Any ideas, much apprieciated :)
