- Here's a quick guide on how to have your own custom stat monitor in your PC case. It's great for a quick glance at stats and you can use any monitoring software you want! Plus it makes things look extra cool. I couldn't find a tutorial anywhere so I tried to figure things out. Of course there are many other ways of doing this but this is one option.

quick thought:
A case company should start making this a standard feature, preferably with touchscreen where we can use the touchscreen input for BIOS tweaking. Imagine the possibility to troubleshoot a PC without needing mouse,keyboard and a monitor. How convenient that be. Need to overclock but don't want to alt tab? just do it on the screen so you can seamlessly see the difference. Monitor already off and you need to resume downloading all the delicious anime? just do it on second screen.
well.. probably not very useful for most people, but i personally would like to own one.
then your £90 case has just turned into £150 for the sake of a screen that only 0.1% of people would actually use it for
Worth it. Need to be on top of the weeb game.
Manaka Takane This need to be motherboard feature, there is no IO to control core MB setnings and grab stats for case to use
you could probably make a dual cd bay screen, but cant you actually buy stuff like that already
i dont think editing a bios while the pc is one would work very well...
Dude, i got a s340 Elite sometime ago, and i just got the card holder and searching for the mouting "tutorial" around youtube and found you, we have very identical setups, and dude u killed me with that screen, i gotta have that, im gonna steal that idea, thank you
Stumbled upon this video after seeing your vertical GPU mount tutorial and I knew I just HAD to do this to my case. Bought everything on Amazon that night, and had a lot of fun adding this little mod to my case. It really adds some extra flair. Thanks for the tutorials!
Wow what a simple yet elegant idea for monitoring your system stats on an external screen. Not many will ever do this but I can see some people having a use for this kind of thing.
I ordered the 7in version. Thank you for such a great idea. The corner of my case that it's sitting in, was so empty. Now it's filled with a monitor!
Where from mate?
@@krazycommo007 Washington state. I'm not sure why you'd ask that. haha
I can't can't find them online hahaha
@@krazycommo007 I bought it on Amazon. Look for 7in raspberry pi monitors.
just got mine today but instead using cam soft i use rainmeter and wallpaper engine

GatorBack nice! How do you like your corsair AIO. Considering it for next build.
Team 974 Same as any asetek(?) coolers its quite quiet but the corsair link is kinda borke right now

I see an awesome future of smart displays that come as an accessory with it's own software for cases. This is badass
Nice video. This plus the one about vertically mounting your GPU convinced me to subscribe. Keep up the good work!
Now It's hard to decide between this or a transparent LCD panel they also have them pictures on them but you can see into the case
You could use Rainmeter and get some much better looking system stats. You could also hide the task bar just on that screen for a cleaner look. For example, with Rainmeter, you could use a dark background, and turn create a Rainmeter layout to match your system RGB colors. So, if your system is orange and black, you could make the screen have a black background with glowing orange looking font and meters.
Thanks for sharing
Hey dude, I just ran into your channel while modding my PC. I'm excited to see how your channel grows, because its quality my man.
This is actually exactly what I'm looking for....I have a few wires I wanted to hide but wasn't sure what to hide them with. I even thought about building a small enclosure to hide them out of aluminum or something. This is practical, cool looking, and will hide them perfectly. Big thanks!
OMFG this is the video that I've been looking for over the past few months! Thank you so much!
Did you ever produce that SSD mount screen with the company you refrenced? That sounds way cleaner and I would prefer that.
RT
would love to see this finished
I subscribed after watching this video and the one with the vertical GPU. Also because that's the case I'm planning to get, and this is just amazing. Amazing work.
I remember looking for a solution like this about 8 months ago to no avail, would've been a great way to monitor temps with a triple monitor config. I hope you have a patent, but that may easier said then done. Great work!
Don't know but just found your channel and it's amazing... You just earned yourself a new subscriber. Cheers
Gabriel Umoh thank you!
When's thst product coming for the ssd screen
I'll be doing this in my daughter's new build. I'm using the same NZXT case so I know it will look great! Got yourself a new subscriber!! Great job sir.
Cool video man. Really cool idea. Winter is coming and work will be slowing so more time to tinker. Keep making these and I might just survive until spring!
i promise this thing will come popular becuse of you thank you for this easy and awesome looking addition
glad to help. Hopefully people link back to the video :)
Abir Ismail I
case makers will probably make prototypes of a built in stats screens... will be the next rgb craze.
I have recently posted your video too the Aorus gaming community where there is alot of case modders. I am going too add it too my next build also. Thank you.
I subscribed after seeing your last video because you promised this video.
Robin Williams I kept my promise :D
Robin Williams so did i. You sir just earned yourself a new sub. Great content :)
Me too, I just built a pc in the S340 Elite this weekend and I hate seeing the empty drive mount in the corner since I went with an M.2 SSD. I'll definitely be adding a stats screen there now thanks to you!
I did this as well.
same haha
Awesome! I'm planning on making a screen integrated into my desk with volume nobs/sliders to control my spotify or anything really. This video gave me so many ideas, thanks a lot!
Thanks for the idea! I just made one of these mods with an Adafruit 5" HDMI screen. My case doesn't have a long PSU shroud, so I had to build a mount from a couple of angle irons. Painted the metallic parts black. Wrote a custom hardware monitor program that fits with the color scheme of the build.
so even though its intended for Pi system, I can just go ahead and plug in it via HDMI on my graphics card?
I'm getting a lot of crazy ideas here!! One of the nicest mods I've ever came across recently. Subbed!
gp t yup! And thanks!
5:20 reminding............ Good ol times with hypermultimedia-pcs
Hey dude you're this video is freaking awesome I just loved it I'll try this on my small extra monitor just one of the best video I've seen
i was thinking about doing this for a while. this screen might be a perfect fit for me
Did you use some kind of double sided tape to hold it to the psu shroud or did you just set it in there?
Mark Ferris I actually just set it there but plan to put double sided tape
msi afterburner would look good in there :P lucky as well as i just bought this case :P
Thanks dude! I have been waiting to watch this!
Sh'3lk ma'9boo6, I like the fact that you didn't have to hard mod anything but rather made it fit seamlessly within your case in a very practical way
MarzTV tislam :)
Why didn't you disable the taskbar on that screen? (You can do it in Windows 10 settings)
Was a fresh build. Didn't activate windows at the time of filming so couldn't hide task bar.
Could have had the program in full screen too haha.
I don't have windows activated and o can still high task bar ;p
@CB Z wasn't the ... case here.
@@Team974 Hello, I have an NZXT H500 Case, I want the 5 inch screen just to sit inside the case standing up, what do you recommend?
Saw this mod on PC Part Picker but the guy never explained how he did it. Thanks for dumbing it down for me!
Thanx for the help, I’ve been trying to build a computer and a HD monitor together and make a desktop laptop and I’ve bean looking for alternatives and now I have one, thanx man.
I dig your style brother, you have a new subscriber.
Reminds me from back in the day when I used a Sony PS1 monitor and ran composite to my Voodoo 3's S-Video port.
Did u end up making those SSD trays for the screen?
For real I would totally get one
Thank you!! Working on my first build and I wanted something like this, I'm working on having two in my tower, one for what you have it as, and the other is going to be a radar map I have set up for my games :)
You said this is super easy and it is super easy. But you are genius of getting this idea! Thanks you. You got my sub
wow! such a lit idea, thx allot man
Yo man I did this and instead of using it to view my stats I use it to watch TH-cam when doing my homework on my pc
DAMN man... that's the most amazing and at the same time the most simplistic mod i have ever seen. I'm going to do it next month when all my pc parts arrive! cheers mate and thanks for sharing!
DiosaTvOfficial sweet! Share a pic too!
Very smart idea. Will try experimenting with it soon!
I bought all these things and now my life is so much easier😂
I plugged it in my gpu and the screen is blank/ white
what wallpaper do you use? can you send me a link with the wallpaper? great video btw!
Why have I never thought of this! Awesome thanks!
Love this video! Didn't know that we had anyone that tech savvy in the region haha
Hi from Dubai!
Second question, does cam automatically startup on that screen after initial setup?
Mark Ferris yes indeed.
Cam is bugged where it will start on your second screen even if the second screen isn't plugged in lol. This happens to me all the time. I load the program and i'm like wtf did it go? Have to right click on the task bar and move it with the arrow keys. Strange...
pretty sure thats a windows problem, i had the same problem before with a projector unplugged but the chrome windows are still starting on the projectors side
luckily so far I haven't had that issue.
hodeh, i thought i was the only one!!
Great Vid fella. I'm doing the same with my 340 elite. Just a tip for you though, Look into the AIDA64 sensor panels. Full customisation and can be made to look alot better than the CAM screen.
Cheers
OMAGIC01 I heard that this looks really good, you can customize to the full content. I would buy it, but it's 40 for a yearly membership. If it was 20 for a lifetime membership, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Thank you!
AIDA64 costs $40/year.
A simple DIY ... Amazing man keep the good work , loved your video , short clear and actually helpful and this looks badass when we show it to other normal people unlike PCMRs !!
Thanks :)
That's a great idea. Simple but it looks really awesome.
Any updates on that ssd sized screen?
me too waiting for it
Why bother doing this? In most cases the screen would be pointing at an off-axis viewing angle and the image would look like crap.
Different screens and screen sizes can be used, within reasonable limits. And they don't necessarily have to be mounted in the same case or the same position shown in this vid, a front- or top-mounted screen in a chassis cutout would be more "viewable" for some systems. Plus a hardware monitor tends to basically be for at-a-glance checks on system status, it doesn't need to be full cinematic quality, lol.
you can try looking for either 5 or 7 inch Raspberry screens
@@camhuyen6346 perfect
Dude... pardon me, /MINDBLOWN over here... that is pretty damn genius. Nicely done!
Bhelios thank you!
for some reason your video just appeared on my feed. But i love tech so i clicked it anyways and im impressed. *Subbed* :D
Pastechi thank you!
Great idea. Loving my S340E. Can't wait to see those caddy's.
Can you make a video to compare performance in gaming with the display inside the case connected and without it? So we can see if it impact on gaming performance. Anyway very good work whit that project, i will reply it on my pc.
Gianmarco Borgese it shouldn’t. It’s a small screen, unless you have like a gpu from 1974 you good
there is zero impact !!!
no i have the same screen and with gtx 1070ti i see about 2-7fps Decrease
As far as I know the screens connected to the gpu can only deliver as many herz as the smallest hz screen. So if you got 2 screens which are 144hz and 60hz, you could only have 60hz max together from tour gpu. This is not a bug, this is the way it works. I also read it somewhere that you can workaround it of you got a mobo gpu or a cpu gpu, because than you can just connect the hdmi of this little screen to the mobo hdmi port. Im not trying to argue here, I really like the idea and want to do it, but I dont want to sacrifice any fps. I got a 240hz screen :/
Is the screen attached or just sitting in the case?
Sitting
This is an excellent for portable gaming and basic operations to have these small monitors connected to a case.
Love the idea. This is the first video is saw of yours. Subscribed.
This mod makes me want to start putting my PC on a desk instead of the floor. My gpu has an HDMI header on the inside so routing cables would be easy.
Or you can put this next to your monitor

Mines touch screen and is plugged into my motherboard and tells me everything about my pc amazing upgaade
Mymasfat Gaming hey man can you link it?
ShaneMUFC I built it sorry
This is great! I have a Phanteks Enthoo PRO M Acrylic case and it would be perfect.
Thanks heaps. I have been trying to figure out what these were.👍
Looks dope dude that is for video only thing I'd do is remove task bar from the other displays so you would only see cam softwere
I had just installed windows and needed to activate it, so I couldn't remove the task bar until activated :)
I used spacedesk and hooked up my phone as an extended screen totally wireless and free.
I wish you had done this 2 months ago. I bought a Viewsonic 20" monitor for pretty much the same purpose. Still it looks awesome in your case!
its about time someone makes this video
الله يسعدك ♥
It looks like you dropped a phone in the case
Love it dude, I have the s340 elite and this will go perfect. You sir, got a sub.
Nagol thanks!
I'd stick the the LCD screen on the wall or on the desk that way you can interact with it (sorta). Great idea!
Can it run Crysis?
Thumbs are free, but they mean a lot to me. The best saying ever
thanks! i looked so many times on google, if i can find a solution to do the same. But now i found your Video ! :D Good Job
I like it, that's pretty slick bro.
4 or 5 inches?
5 inches, I linked the correct one in description
Team 974 thank you so much bro ❤️
5" definitely, my GF is always telling me that an extra inch makes all the difference.
Andy Bradley and I agree 😉
Andy Bradley shrimp
He can afford this beast pc
But cannot buy genuine windows 😂
Why spend a hundred bucks to be allowed to customize the theme of windows? That's literally the only different between unactivated windows 10 and activated.
Sides, Microsoft themselves on their official site offer you the download to make the Windows 10 installation disk image for free. The company is literally giving you the option to use unactivated to get a 99.9% functioning windows 10, so again why pay for it short of buying prebuilt machines?
@@demonzero677 thank you. Likes it's so cool to pay for something that's being given out for free.
Maybe because annoying security updates
@@smoke4131 which you still get... Sorry
Eventually you get permanent watermark
Kinda cool seeing these mods we used to do in the early to mid 2000's coming back again. Having an HDMI screen definitely makes this a lot easier, those early LED screens were a lot more involved, a lot of figuring out wiring diagrams and soldering to pull this mod off back then.
great video, thanks so much for the information, im in the process of building a home theater system, the difference between a "standard" htpc case and one with a screen on it is ridiculous ! you just put my ideal set up within my price range !
Ryzen 7! At last. An AMD user in Qatar. They alwayss sell Intel in Souq.
Copying hardware 360 in 3,2,1...
Subbed ... Clean crisp video with great info GJ!
That's great man. Cool idea. I will this thing on my NZXT phantom.
B for effort. All your doing is just taking a screen and making it a second monitor.
It would be cool to get a custom firmware screen that wouldn't need to be run off the desktop that way you could game plus have a screen that is just watching temps.
rasberry pi with some sort of connection to your pc, maybe a mini server and just have the computer send out stats to the rasberry pi. there you go
Did you get this idea from the r/buildapc sub a few months back? I've had mine up and running for about 2 months or so now, and adding Rainmeter really helps with getting the most out of a small display. Reddit link: www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/6gpo43/how_to_add_a_5_hardware_monitor_to_your_pc_for/?st=j7ctpmki&sh=9920c639
I got the idea from a youtube video I saw a few months ago on GGF channel. Waited for someone to do a tutorial, saw nobody did it, so filmed the process :)
Team 974 yeah me too, inspired by GGF. Pretty much did the same thing as you but I tweaked the background wallpaper AND the banner image for the CAM software to fit. I also wrote to the devs about maximizing the software.
imgur.com/a/gdllI
That looks great, awesome build too. Is that a Carbon Fiber vinyl wrap on the radiators?
I decided to put mine on a tablet arm and have it next to my monitor so I can check temps as I game, and have EVGA Precision open if I'm OCing the GPU: imgur.com/a/m2tJM
leeo101 awesome!
Thats slick how did you mount it next to your monitor?
Can't wait for this channel to blow up to a million subs
luisangel serrato thank you!
You’re the only tech reviewer who doesn’t have a physical flaw. I saw you and listened to you and I was like no way he’s a tech guy and he’s perfect
what LOL
Wait a second... HDMI has power? I did not know that HDMI can deliver/draw power???
yup it can, but only a small amount. If this was a full HD screen I doubt it could power it
dogbog99 it's a 5volt supply like USB.
Acually its 5 volts 1.5 amps
Ali0The0King lol
Ali0The0King oh wait ur right
Be back after install a 5inch i have found with a case, and it's perfect, CAM open automaticly on it :) (only the RPM of GPU don't work)

I tried it, but I get white screen
Great video! I never thought about trying this before. I might give it a shot. Thanks for sharing :-)
Now I found use for the 7 inch screens that I have left over. Thank you for your video
You're copy to Hardware 360 channel
Sir your windows is don't even activated.
KO Blumie not*
Nice vid, good info about HDMI cable.
Awesome Video!! I expected something much more complicated.. XD
You plagiarized this content from hardware 360 channel.
frfr thieving ass nigga should have did a shout out, shit snake ass thieving ass paco taco looking ass nigga LMFAO.
Yeah, but it’s in fucking Spanish
lmfao
really people have been doing this for 10-15 years the very first ones used the PlayStation one portable screen
And hardware 360 stole it from GGF Events, and GGF events stole it from the first guy who did it, smh, dont even start with this shit yah panz.
100% useless
You could put discord/Spotify in there so it's always viewable but not on your main screen
Or just use second monitor on your table, and use it. I dont see any point installing small display on case, its nice like rgb fans, but useless at the end
Mr. Q i gotta say you are badass and i wish 1 day i am able to build my dream gaming/streaming like your's keep up the amazing work
Dude this is a great idea
