They are in a different order. Also, I don't have anything labeled
+3.3V in the BIOS. Here is the order from my BIOS:
Vcore
+5.0V
+12.0V
-12.0V
-5.0V
Battery
+5V SB
And this is from /etc/sensors.conf:
chip "w83697hf-*"
label in0 "VCore"
label in2 "+3.3V"
label in3 "+5V"
label in4 "+12V"
label in5 "-12V"
label in6 "-5V"
label in7 "V5SB"
label in8 "VBat"
So based on the names, it would appear that in7 and in8 are reversed.
But if in7 and in8 were really reversed, wouldn't I see 5.xV for VBat
and 3.xV for V5SB?

That is closer to what my BIOS says. If I use that computation, then
I can set the threshold back to +- 5% for 5VSB.
Sensors now reports this:
V5SB: +4.97 V (min = +4.75 V, max = +5.26 V)
and previously my BIOS said 5.042V (and would sometimes drop down to
4.993V for a second).
