[SOLVED] Motherboard has no 2 pin header

[spruitt626]

How can I use a 2 pin temp sensor on a motherboard that has no 2 pin header? Is there a pci-e card that I can use that will accommodate a 2 pin sensor?

Been a while since I have seen a discrete temperature sensor. I'm sure some higher end boards still have them though, again, not seen one used.

Basically need a ADC card (Analog to Digital Controller) I'm sure they are out there, but you would have to get the spec sheet for the temperature sensor, and possibly write your own software.

Buying something like a USB -> temperature sensor would make more sense.

About the only thing I am finding are water cooling components. They are intended to plug into devices that already have inputs for temperature sensors.

There are a few 5 1/4" bay fan controller/temp sensors.

There are some fan controllers that have this feature, like the EK Loop Connect and Corsair Commander Pro which make use of 2-pin temp sensors. I use them on my cooler testing as well as in my cooling loop.

Thanks for the info
