add in cards

Post by thorilan »

could someone give me a little more info on these as i cant find anything on the website about how they will work.
specifically i have had a MX series display for years and i love the features and my goal is to get info like probe temps from the MX temp probes. . i also understand that there will be other features like fan controlling by PWM but better , in the works . basically i want to be able to control fans and pumps by PWM and possibly voltage for the pumps ( 8.5 -14 volts )
even just on off for voltage would be nice.

so more info on how the add on cards work ( especially with newer mobs and new pci slots)

The addin cards you connect to the back of the GX to the two GX expantion ports. While the Termperature probe board hasn't finalized completely yet, I can tell you it will atleast feature a bunch of the same connectors as on the MX so you can just (re)use the probes you have right now.

On the PWM/GPO board I sadly have no specifics at this point in time I can share with you.

great thanks for the quick reply.
would you say that when the gpo board comes out it will have at least a enough connections to control 6 diferent things? i know the question is stretching it but im thinking you might know that based on how the tech will probably work.
the other thing i was wondering is how easy to use is the software for someone with windows experiance but no programming experiance
