I bumped the value in the BIOS up to 2.70V and sensors now reports in4 at 2.72V. Interestingly enough, in the process of confirming the relation of the in4 setting, I discovered a bug in the BIOS: After testing, I returned the Vdimm value in the BIOS to default (2.60V). After the boot, Sensors then reported in4 still at 2.72V. I rebooted back into the BIOS, and its own monitoring display confirmed the same value for Vdimm. I switched the Vdimm setting from default to a manual setting of 2.60V. Sensors again reports 2.72V, and rebooting again confirms this in the BIOS reading. I'll check later on after a cold boot, if things are different. Anyways, I digress. >>> temp1: +39?C (high = -122?C, hyst = -41?C) sensor = diode ALARM >>> temp2: +39.0?C (high = +80?C, hyst = +75?C) sensor = diode >>> temp3: +59.0?C (high = +80?C, hyst = +75?C) sensor = diode >>> >> May be OK too.

Interesting, I'm noticing the limits for temp1 are fluctuating on their own. For example, $ sensors lm90-i2c-0-4c Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000 M/B Temp: +38?C (low = +0?C, high = +70?C) CPU Temp: +55.9?C (low = +0.0?C, high = +70.0?C) M/B Crit: +85?C (hyst = +75?C) CPU Crit: +85?C (hyst = +75?C) w83687thf-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter in0: +1.09 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +3.84 V) in1: +1.50 V (min = +2.48 V, max = +2.11 V) ALARM in2: +3.33 V (min = +2.86 V, max = +1.15 V) ALARM in3: +2.99 V (min = +2.05 V, max = +3.36 V) in4: +2.72 V (min = +3.49 V, max = +0.03 V) ALARM in7: +2.94 V (min = +0.16 V, max = +0.42 V) ALARM in8: +3.30 V (min = +0.38 V, max = +3.14 V) ALARM fan1: 1339 RPM (min = 9375 RPM, div = 8) ALARM fan2: 1394 RPM (min = 1016 RPM, div = 8) fan3: 0 RPM (min = 6367 RPM, div = 2) ALARM temp1: +43?C (high = +6?C, hyst = -43?C) sensor = diode ALARM temp2: +44.5?C (high = +80?C, hyst = +75?C) sensor = diode temp3: +59.5?C (high = +80?C, hyst = +75?C) sensor = diode vid: -1.200 V (VRM Version 8.2) alarms: beep_enable: Sound alarm enabled >> a new patch is available here: >> >> http://jdelvare.net2.nerim.net/sensors/hwmon-w83627hf-add-w83687thf-support.patch >> >> Note that it only applies to Linus' git tree (or any recent mm tree), >> not 2.6.15 - unless you fix the few rejects manually. >> ... >> If you happen to test the patch linked above, please >> report the result. >> > Awesome. I'll look into that. Will report back. Haven't tried the patch yet - been busy tracking down some other problems. Will probably hold off till 2.6.15.1 comes out and then manually make the changes then. >> maybe we can simply write a configuration file for your board.

There is a "SmartDoc Anti-Burn Shield" Menu in my BIOS that can be seen here: http://www.silentpcreview.com/files/images/soltek3901/Fan-control.jpg However, I just noticed that the user adjustable "Shutdown Temperature" in the BIOS version I'm running has been removed (although , as illustrated in the pic above, it was available in earlier revisions of the BIOS!). Anyways, when I had a look at my BIOS settings, I recorded the following: CPU Internal Temp. 43C CPU External Temp 51C System Temp 41C Fan1 Speed 1394 RPM Fan2 Speed 1360RPM Vcore 1.40V +1.5V 1.50V +3.3V 3.29V VDIMM 2.59V ....... although, of course, its now at 2.72V, as described above +5V 5.04V VBAT 3.29V 5VSB 4.96V Smart Fan1 Temperature 60C Fan1 Tolerance Value [1] Smart Fan2 Temperature 45C Fan2 Tolerance Value [1] - Interesting that there is no +12V reading - Of course, only the bottom Smart Fan stuff is user adjustable In the " Frequency / Voltage Control " BIOS menu, there are relevant entries for: CPU Vcore Select AGP Voltage Select DIMM Voltage Select All of which I have set on "Default" Let me know if you need anything else, or clarification of anything.
