Front Case temp readings

[Juic3]

Hi, I bought a case that has temp probes to see temps on the front of the case, what is the best way to install these on the video card, cpu and chipset ?

use thermal tape and tape it to the heatsink as close to the chip as possible without touching the chip. thats what i did

Be careful if you decide to run the wires through the processor to get it between the PCB and the core. It's a good way to bend the shit out of some pins, and it's why my last processor was a Socket 475.

Yeah I dont wanna do that, I wanna do the safest thing.

Does it have to be between the core and the heatsink ?
