So here is actually looks like Temp1 and Temp2 should be > swapped. I don't know if this makes sense though. It does, and it is known to be true for the A7V8X-X. Motherboard manufacturers are free to link whichever sensor input to whatever they want (although we consider it a Bad Practice (TM)). -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
