A good temperature display device (LCD, digital, etc.)

[Momental]

Originally I'd wanted a multifunction panel that not only monitors the temperatures of the CPU, HDD and the like, but one that ramps the fan speeds up and down as needed.

I'll be using (4) SilenX case fans that are extremely quiet and move a good amount of air. Additionally, I'll be installing a Zalman CNPS7700 Cu HSF.

Are there any temperature monitors that can be installed in an external 5.25" drivebay that just tell you how warm it is using various sensors without a fan speed controller? Basically, all I need is a digital and backlit thermometer. Unless this is totally extraneous?

I came so close to buying an AeroCool 'GateWatch-SV' which is the slickest looking thing ever, but at $55, I had to say, "Uh, no." Seriously, Check it out. It took every bit of strength to not buy this thing.

Anywho, is there any other device/product that has some "bling" aspect but that also does a good job?

Thanks!

Hm. I guess such a device doesn't exist. *shrug*

No harm in askin', though.

I have the Areogate II, I love it. But, the Hardcano 13 has caught my eye. You can find the Areogate II for like 45 bucks. It has some "bling" factor, and does seem to work well. I have the Silver one, the one that doesn't hold the HD. If you wanna buy it lemme know
