Is anyone working on getting temp readings via a dashboard etc? I'd imagine it would be a bios hack to enable it.

Also, does the Xbox have a sensor for the CPU and GPU or just CPU?

Alright "flash orange" means get lots of ice.

Thanks for the replies.

I have a WD 100gb 7200 and I don't have any problems either, but i think it mostly depends on what brand of hard drive you got. Someone on xbh.net had posted a link to a site who tested differents brands of hds to check their temp, as far as i remember the WD were the coolest and the (IBM) Deskstar the hotests.

So if you use WD u shoudn't have any problems.

                                    can you post that url, sounds interesting  smile.gif

Would it be possible to implement a temerature reading into evox dash? Would be nice to know the temp, just to know.

                                    yeah its possible.

the sdk has temp reading in software so they just have to copy it i guess.

Im sure it will be in future releases.
