i have got 2 lian li LCD thermometers which i wanna use to monitor my compressors temps, or gfx for example.

The thermometers come with 2 thermistors, and they came with a tiny bit of tape which i used already.

now i want to find some tape that is designed to stick in surfaces which are v hot...like 60C and more...

I havent found any to be honest and i want some.

anyone got a clue what sort of tape-type i should be looking for?

for gfx cards,memory, compressor temp monitoring ;)

i am in the UK so if someone knows a retailer that will sell the tape i need would be great :)

thanks in advance

I generally just use normal black electrical tape. They seem to hold well enough for me. ;)

Tried that before but if the surface is hot...it wont stick too well

and on the back of a GPU due to the caps etc theres not enough room-free pcb surface for the tape to attach to

I usually just use thermal tape. Seems to work for me

I've always just used a drop of superglue.
