Here are hints to help you figure out though: * 127 degrees C doesn't look real, it's way too high and it's the max value the chip can report. So most probably temp2 isn't connected to an actual thermal sensor. You can ignore it by adding an "ignore temp2" line in the right section of /etc/sensors.conf. * temp1 is much higher than temp3, this suggests that temp1 is the CPU temperature while temp3 would be the board temperature. You can confirm this by running a CPU-intensive task (e.g. "md5sum /dev/zero"). Whichever temperature value rises faster has to be the CPU temperature. -- Jean Delvare
