I just built my first PC, and my motherboard (Asus Z170-A) has a T_SENSOR header on it. I'd like to attach a temp sensor to my GPU for fan control purposes, but I'm having trouble figuring out what sensor I should buy. It says in the manual that "The thermistor cable is purchased separately.", but I can't find any indication that Asus sells a thermistor. I see some online, but none of them seem to be marketed for use in PCs, and they're all rated at different levels of resistance, so I don't know what will work with my motherboard.
Any suggestions of what to buy?
Also, if anyone knows a way for me to get the Asus fan control software to recognize the temp sensors already in my GTX 970, that would fix my problem too.
