Typical of Gigabyte boards. They put two Ethernet chips, 2 USB controllers, Firewire, two Serial ATA controllers, etc. on the board, but omit the thermistor for motherboard temperature to save a few cents. Go figure... My own board (Gigabyte K8V Ultra-939) says: temp1: +25.0?C (low = +127.0?C, high = +127.0?C) sensor = disabled temp2: -55.0?C (low = +127.0?C, high = +127.0?C) sensor = disabled temp3: +47.0?C (low = +10.0?C, high = +51.0?C) sensor = thermal diode And temp1 never changes. So, same as yours: temp3 is the CPU temperature, and temp1 and temp2 can be ignored (and even disabled). The relevant part of my configuration file is: ### Temperatures # Gigabyte confirmed that there is no system temperature sensor on this # motherboard. This is really disappointing, as the board is otherwise # full featured. ignore temp1 ignore temp2 label temp3 "CPU Temp" set temp1_type 0 set temp2_type 0 # The CPU temperature was seen from 34 to 48 degrees C so far. set temp3_min 10 set temp3_max 51 Hope that helps, -- Jean Delvare
