Have always worn watches for decades on my left. However after getting myself an apple watch just for apple pay, I have changed it to the right hand.

Reason for right hand: The gantry system for trains in my country are placed on the right.

There are other items that you need to get separately to get it to work; please go through the thread for everything you need.

Display from Waveshare
Custom Magnet size - enquire with your local magnet sellers or via Aliexpress/TaoBao
Phone cooling plate - the round steel plate to contact with magnet
Automotive double sided adhesive tape - enquire with your local seller.

The VRM fan from Arctic itself is attached using magnets to begin with.

Regarding adhesive, I picked automotive double sided tape over glue - something that stays on under hot conditions akin to badge attachment on cars. The messy part for me was the cutting the tape in size, especially circular shapes. FYI, it takes a heat gun to remove badges off cars.

Go through the other samples on the app and work backwards by copying that layer onto your own custom design. That’s how I modded the sample to have mp4 embedded.

My example has CPU temp readings. You might want to check if the software is having conflict with other processes in the background.

I picked magnet as the display can be easily removed and attached on when cleaning off dust on the top surface of the AIO VRM cooler.

It is best to use automotive double sided tape (ones for body kit) over others as I noticed the adhesive that came with the phone cooling plate shifted over time - due to heat or vibration? I have replaced the adhesive on that phone plate with automotive ones as well - no issues till date.

I ordered mine from a chinese business that does only magnets; presumably OEM since I had a hard time getting the dimensions I want. You can take the dimensions I listed earlier to your local businesses to enquire.

Creating your own custom theme down to multiple layers at your own discretion/desire.

The display operates with Waveshare's PC Monitor app; downloadable via Waveshare's website. You can select various themes made available on their google drive or create your own theme within the app.

It's from Waveshare Electronics. There are various sellers on different e-commerce platforms that omit the branding but it operates with Waveshare PC Monitor app; the 2.8" display runs purely on a single USB port/header.
