Is there any way for me to find out the temperature inside my case without buying a case with one of those nifty LED readouts? I plan to get one around Christmas time maybe, but until then, I want to have a way to tell if my new computer is running at a decent temperature. I've heard people all over the place talking about their case temperature, and I doubt everybody has one of those cases with the LED temperature readout, so what are some variables to telling the temperature inside my case?
Also.. Is there a way to tell the temperature of individual pieces of hardware? I've been reading reviews on Newegg while choosing products for my new computer, and while looking at processors I saw alot of people saying stuff like, "I have it overclocked to 2.6GHz and it runs stable at 32c." Are they talking about the case temperature, or the temperature of the CPU?
Sorry if I sound kind of "noobish", but my computer is a P.O.S. and I've never really cared about the temperature of it. However, with this new machine I'm building, I want to make sure it's running the way it should be.
