This is rather unlikely IMHO. The fact that only temp3 has type =
thermal diode and only temp3 has its high limit set to a sensible
value, my own guess is that temp3 is the CPU temperature. Which would
leave temp1 for the system temperature.
Obviously CPU temperature lower than system temperature is suspicious,
so there may be some offset to apply. In any case it would be
interesting to see what the BIOS reports.

We do have a datasheet. It's not public as far as I know, we got it
from ITE. I can confirm that your voltages are wrong, as the
IT8721F/IT8758E has a 12mV ADC instead of 16mV as all other supported
chips have. So all your raw voltage readings are 33% higher than they
should be.
Virgil, I'm adding you to the list of people interested in
IT8721F/IT8758E support.
