The box should of came with crappy yellow tape that barely sticks well. i replaced those with black electrical tape which worked better.

for example, if you wanted to see how hot your ram is, tape temp 1 on the heatsink and if you have a ram fan, plug it into your fan 1. So fan 1 is temp 1.

as for CPU, it uses a 4 pin to the mobo, but you can still tape your temp line to cpu heatsink. make sure its as close to the bottom as possible. On the temp line, there is a little black dot, that part is mainly where it checks for temperature.

- i have a sentry 2 for my nzxt phantom.
