My specs: https://pp.vk.me/c604420/v604420426/d731/zNfTUuAns2w.jpg

I now have Geforce 1080 instead of 980 Ti

Okay, so I want to change my case. Purely for aestethics. The highest temperature I have ever gotten was 54 degrees Celsius, and that was on my CPU. GPU has even lower temps. I want to get NZXT H440 Razer Edition, but it does not have an external 5.25 inch drive bay where I can put my Aerocool V12 XT panel to see the temperatures and fan rpm's. Now, this is my question: how do people see all the temperatures in their PC and fan speeds without those LCD panels? I am not tech savvy.

Okay, so if all the fans are plugged in to the fan hub and to the PSU, I can just get a program and control their speeds?
Where do I connect the cable that checks temperature?
 
Well some people use speedfan if the fans are 4 pin. I think you can control them. I dont use it myself

You dont connect any cables. Well you cant if there's no 5.25 bay

I brought 2 4 pin fans the other day and just enabled PWM in the BIOS. This should control the speed of both of them

If I basically just download a program, like PCWizard, it will show me the fan speeds and temperatures, right? The screen that goes into 5.25 drive bays is just a way to see the speeds and temperatures on the case itself, right?

With the panel you can manually control the fan speeds and you can't with the program?

Yes. Don't use or haven't used PCWizard,but i'm pretty sure it's an only monitoring tool.Well read something and benchmarking seems possible,but fan controll i don't think so.
As i said,without the panel do you need to attach the fans to the motherboard and in that case let the motherboard controll the fans.Some board makers have their own software tools to controll the fans.
