Hi, im planning on using a 2pin temperature sensor in my custom loop to control the fans. I know there are 3rd party fan controllers that can take this as input, but i have also seen motherboards (old ones or in videos) that have this header. I think using the motherboard is easier and i save money. Here is the problem: I have not found any site/blogpost that gives information about having this header or not besides saying "look in the manual of the motherboard" (Which isnt an option for me, because i dont have a motherboard, i want to buy one and i dont want to read 40 motherboard manuals). Is there someone that knows some motherboards (B550, budget oriented) that have this 2pin T_sensor? Or in best case a site or list that offers this feature as a filter, so that i can choose from a wider range of options. Thanks very much in advance!

I understand your ROG boards use 2-pin T_sensor connectors. It's unclear for other systems like Prime, but it's safe to assume many premium models from any brand will include them.

You can easily obtain motherboard manuals from the manufacturer's site using CTRL-F. Most Gigabyte models include one, though it’s always good to verify the manual before purchasing. Many AM4 boards I’ve worked with are premium options such as X570 Taichi, Master, and Ace, so I can’t specifically praise lower-end models. It would take a while to check each budget board to see if they’re available.
