After doing some extensive research I've managed to stumble across: http://www.littlewhitedog.com/reviews_hardware_00040.asp and finally went ahead to purchase my new GBox 4 weeks ago.

GBox product link: http://www.american-media.com/Products/PC_Servers/CF-968.html

The system is great while running on XP with a remote DLink adapter 520+. However, after overclocking my system I'm worried about the temperature of the computer (the plexiglass and small capacity has an issue of accumulating heat).

My question is: is there a way to check for CPU and memory temperature (I've already tweaked "shutdown" on 128F in the BIOS) under Windows XP? GBox doesn't seem to include software for this.

CPU: P4/2.4GHz 533M 478PIN/512K. --> with OC 2.5 GHz

All comments and suggestions are welcome!

Motherboard Monitor 5 works great for me!

That works nice, but I haven't noticed a way to make it display the temps in the system tray, which is why I like motherboard monitor 5.
