    Man I'm just all about asking questions i guess, haha

    I'm just curious if anyone knows of an analog style gauge that can measure CPU temp, case temp, fan speed, etc, etc. Again I've dug around online some but haven't been able to come up with what I'm looking for. I know the Musketeer is something of the sort but ideally id like to not have to break something down just for a few components if i can find it by itself.


    thanks again for everyone's help:)

    In that review you can see the name of the manufacturer of the gauges: Nissei. Did you try looking for these gauges yet?

    bahh, yeah so i dug around for awhile and still wasn't able to find anything even with knowing Nissei makes the gauges on the Musketeer. I might try to call Apevia on monday and see if hey would be able to get me a replacement meter for the gauges on the X-cruiser case and try to use something like that.

    may be worth reading you may be able to use just about any analogue gauge.

    Has anyone tries this from SCRIBD.com under heading "Monitor your PC with an analogue meter" I can't post links yet, sorry.
    I have tried this but can't get the needle to move. Anyone succeeded in using a 3.5mm audio jack to drive an analogue gauge to display CPU load?

    If I can't even get this to work I do not even want to try the more complex hack on the DIYlife.com site. Thanks.
