Cool display. Where'd you find that pic? That could give us a clue as to where to start looking. My guess is it's a proprietary display that's only available with a certain premod case.

EDIT: Found the case -- actually, found SFF PC's with the same display. And yes, they really do let you overclock with the turn of a knob.

Yeah its built into the case and motherboard that is supplied. Its useless unless you want an sff.

Exactly. So the next best thing might be something like the Aerocool GateWatch. It takes up two 5.25" bays, so that LCD is almost three inches high. It displays fan speed, temps, sound volume, time, and HDD activity. SVC has it for $55.

It comes in black or silver, and you can switch backlight colors between blue, red, and purple.

More alternatives would be:

A TFT Screen and a video card with TV Out. Then you could display whatever you want.
A Crystalfontz or Matrix Orbital LCD or VFD screen. Smaller than a TFT, but lets you control what's displayed.
Build an LED-based display of your own using bargraph and digit displays. It would have to be driven by circuit electronics (for the temps) or by your own custom software (like through the serial port).

Dude, that's pretty badass! I like the overclock knob.

Those crystal matrix's are nice, but expensive. You can make it display anything which is cool.
