Best way to power and control external liquid cooling?
3 minutes ago, actually_god said:yeah ive thought about something like that using a hdplex 250w (small, fanless, modular, atx) and an arduino or something. my hesitance is that the end result is a pile of cables and stuff i need to put somewhere to make them "presentable" which is why i want to make changes in general.
Just go to your local big box store and get a lunchbox. Mount everything not massively heat generating in there and you should be good, or cut a vent and add a fan if you want to mount, say, the PSU in there too. The proper way to do it would be a box for electronics, but I do not know whether home improvement stores carry those, you might have to order them.

I actually meant one of those I think, I considered one as well but did not want to pay that much and have to use their software, so I basically just eyeball temps (it works, not perfectly but good enough).

Possibly, but I do not know of one.
