I'm just wondering if this is possible before I commit to the phoyba water sensor I'd planned to add to my build. Its not something I've had to try before and not something I've managed to find on google - my motherboard has no temp sensors unfortunately and it'd be kinda cool to have the water temp showing on the case LED readout. Would be a pain to get it all set up only to find the case can't read the info from a 2 pin sensor. Thanks.

    Hi Calesien
    First you should check is that the temp probe is 10k sensor.
    Then you could get 3-pin vga fan connector for your probe like this one https://www.moddiy.com/products/Graphics-Card-VGA-Socket-Mini-Female-PH-Connector-%282.0mm%29.html and change the 2 pin.
     
    Can confirme that this will work with this temp probe XSPC - G¼ Plug with 10k Sensor. My build is't ready yet but I have done some testing with this probe and get same readings as original probe in the air. The connector is small and a pain to fit on the cable. 



    Lazy or not Lazy. That's not a question.

    i can testify that getting a 10K sensor does in fact work, though i spliced it in using old connector. video proof can be found here: https://youtu.be/_qzsxu46SOc?t=16m43s
     
    i used this temp sensor: http://www.performance-pc...nsor-plug-10k-ohm.html
