the Matrix Orbital Temperature Probe , there is way to put it inside the Reservoirs?
Well you -could- encase it in expoxy, drill a hole in the top of the reservior, and dangle it down inside...
Where there is a will, there is a way. It won't be pretty and if you do it wrong, it could short out or leak. But it's technically doable.
Another option, if you have the money, is to get a T-Balancer bigNG, hook the Bitspower temp sensor to the bigNG, and read the values that way and push it to the Matrix Orbital display.

matrix orbital displays use LCDC software , http://www.lcdc.cc/downloads.htm
LCDC using plugin like:
Motherboard Monitor 5 , Hardware System Monitor (hmonitor) , Everest Ultimate
with the plugins LCDC show CPU and motherboard Temp.
maybe i can plug the Bitspower G 1/4in. Temperature Sensor to somewhere in my motherboard to show water temp?

There is no temp probe port on a motherboard.
Sorry, but it just wont work.
I spent a lot of time and even went out to custom people to get a probe to work in my orbital.
Martin was nice enough to make me a T with a probe, but its just too much hassle.
If you have an orbital sorry, as i said i owned 2, both the expensive VFD models, and now there just sitting in a box with the rest of my useless junk.
If you want a temp probe display get a scythe Kaze master.
The cheapest option is a dedicated temp LED (XSPC make some), for about $5. You can snip the end off the LED probe and wire the bitspower plug into it. Or you can grab a silverstone CMD01 ($17 from amazon) and connect it to that (it will work in HWMonitor just fine without any nvidia bits), which will give you the readout purely in software.
NaeKuh's point though is that MO display's use a very specific temp sensor made by Maxim-IC that is meant only for Dallas 1-wire communication buses which have a 3-pin connector on them. It's really not a temperature sensor in the traditional way you would think of one. It's really like a little ASIC that comes in a package that looks like a transistor and requires external power and all that.
Most of the temp sensors people are probably accustomed to using are just simple 2-lead thermistors that give a temperature based on a certain R value and k constant or something like that which can be used to calculate the temperature. That's all the Asus board is using. The two are completely incompatible like he said.

Am I missing something? It sounds like all the OP wants to do is show the temperature on the MO display. Probe to motherboard to hardware monitor/everest/etc to PLED via USB. That should do it, no?

sure if u can find a software that will place nice with lcdc and take the temps off the board.
I stand corrected tho, i never knew there was a board that u could plug analog probes to directly..
