I've seen somwhere an idea (probably in the archives) for lm-sensors to keep very mainboard specific configurations for all mainbords and copy apropriate config files to /etc/sensors.d depending on DMI values? that's why I put there the exact same labels as the ones printed on the mainboard. we could make the labels human readable and in comments before each of them put the header label: # CPU_FAN header label fan1 "CPU Fan" # SYS_FAN2 header label fan2 "Sys Fan 2" # PWR_FAN header label fan3 "Power Fan" # SYS_FAN1 header label fan4 "Sys Fan 1" > > > > > > > label temp1 "Sys Temp" > > > > label temp2 "Tcase Temp" > > > > > > Why "Tcase" and not just "Case"? > > > > because it's the Tcase temp of a CPU (temperature of an IHS) > > > > I bet "Case Temp" would be read as ambient temperature by most people > > (temperature inside the computer case), making it Tcase should clear the > > confusion, especially when after putting "tcase temp" to google one does > > recive "C2Q/C2D Temp Guide" as first result and "Tcase/Tjunction/Temp > > question" as second > > Ah, OK. Then why not just "CPU Temp"? This would be much clearer. It's > not like you have other CPU temperature sensors on the chip. in every C2D are 3 temperature sensors, and in every Core 2 Quad a 5 ones: one Tcase - temperature of the CPU casing (which max temperature is published by intel as the maximum safe operational temperature), this temperature is read by the mainboard using a sensor inside CPU die, and Tjunction0, Tjunction1 for C2D and Tjunction0-4 for C2Q which is read using coretemp driver by CPU itself ? those sensors are inside each core's hotspot and trigger emergency shutdown if CPU is overheating (usually around 95-100?C), with highly overclocked CPUs the gradient between Tcase and Tjunction can reach 8-9?C ? so rather substantial as such there's not one CPU temperature to measure but several, this one is known as Tcase. oh, and one more thing - mobile CPUs don't have IHS, so they don't have Tcase, if sensors report a CPU Temp (not the coretemp ones) it's completely external to the CPU > > > > > ignore temp3 > > > > === snip === > > > > > > Yes it does, thanks for your contribution! > > > > np > > > > BTW, I couldn't use "compute" with "Core 0" and "Core 1" labels (I wanted > > to calibrate my core temperatures) > > line: > > > > compute "Core 0" @ +3, @ -3 > > > > was completely ignored... > > Compute statements take symbolic names, not labels, as their first > parameter.
