@mykatamari exactly the xoxide pc tach kit is the original! with the good ole' serial connection! i still have mine working after all these years since 2001ish!
I just thought of another thing, if you added a sound generator, so as the computer "revs" there is also an engine revving sound to go along with it. Albeit would need a volume control with an off position still its an idea
you need to make a tripomiter, from a car, for miles the mouse has moved or to that effect ! and you would have to make it into meters as miles would take years to even get to 1 mile
The tachometer is very easy to drive: you just have to pulse a signal. The faster you pulse the further you move the niddle. The Arduino is perfect for a project like this. I did the preliminary tests with the arduino. I am going to write a post on my blog about this project. You will be able to find useful information there.
Iv thought of doing something like that before, but don;t have the skills to create the software for it, iv done a bit of Visual Basic, but very basic, and have written a few LED flashing codes for my Arduino. Do you think this would be compatible with an Arduino? Thanks again, Tom.

I created a Windows application in C# which reads the CPU usage and send the data to the USB tachometer.

Dude when you decide to market these things let me know I would literally buy a couple . .

Amazing...I really like it.
What sort of software do you use to interface the CPU usage with the USB output?
Thanks.
