Yes, I foundit in the mailing list archives. Works nice, unfortunately gkrellm
doesn't support it yet.

Yes, later I thought the same...

Here we go:
Vcore 1,35 (so it show 0.05 too little, as stock vcore at 2GHz is 1.4, I
should have set it down to 1.2 or 1.225, if I calced the hex corretly...)
3.3: 3.22
5: 5.03
12: 11.85
comparing again with sensors:
k8temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
Core0 Temp:
+33?C
Core1 Temp:
+35?C
it8716-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore: +0.80 V (min = +4.08 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM
VDDR: +3.12 V (min = +4.08 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM
+3.3V: +0.00 V (min = +4.08 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM
+5V: +4.84 V (min = +6.85 V, max = +6.85 V) ALARM
+12V: +11.52 V (min = +16.32 V, max = +16.32 V) ALARM
in5: +0.00 V (min = +4.08 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM
in6: +0.00 V (min = +4.08 V, max = +4.08 V) ALARM
5VSB: +4.70 V (min = +6.85 V, max = +6.85 V) ALARM
VBat: +2.88 V
fan1: 1800 RPM (min = 6490 RPM) ALARM
fan2: 0 RPM (min = 6490 RPM) ALARM
fan3: 1560 RPM (min = 0 RPM)
temp1: +28?C (low = -1?C, high = -1?C) sensor = diode
temp2: +42?C (low = -1?C, high = -1?C) sensor = thermistor
temp3: +25?C (low = -1?C, high = -1?C) sensor = thermistor
vid: +0.00 V
We see that sensors reports a bit too little voltages across the board.
Interesting that the temp sensors - though conforming to bios values - are
giving quite ridiculous values. temp2 - motherboard temp - is way higher than
cpu temp, but on the other hand I don't know where the 2nd sensor is and
whether the chipset actually gets hotter

The board is pretty new and I didn't have cmos problems, so don't think so.

Nope, if I interpret it correctly

has the same problem if you compare bios vcore and sensors output.

cpu family : 15
model : 75
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
stepping : 2
It is the new AM2 "regular" version.

I think the bios ones are right, as if I disable fan management, it shows CPU
fan at 2335 which fits well enough to Artcic Cooling Freezer 64 specs at
2200rpm. (Yes my machine is "ultra silent", so it is possible that fans run
at ~800 rpm when idle. It also just consumes 50Watt when idle...)
On the other hand, when I disable fan management, the fan makes quite some
noise which might be too high for a 2200rpm fan, but maybe I am just used to
silence. ;-)

Yes Asus' so called "q-fan2".

Well, I haven't observed the bios long enough, as such values usually just
appear for short times. But I noticed at times the bios also shows wrong
values, as it shows "0" instead of ~800. Perhaps here the same thing hapens,
but the bios clips the value correctly?
