Maybe not ignoring. It might actually be monitoring something, just not
the CPU Vcore.

No, compute statements shouldn't be needed for Vram, as it is below the
ADC limit (2.04 V.) My point was that maybe Vram isn't in4 but another
input. For example, the unscaled values of in5 and in6 are closer to
the nominal +1.8V than in4. in6 (+1.87) in particular would be a good
bet, as overvolting is a more frequent operation than undervolting, and
one would normally not scale +5V or +12V to a value so close to the ADC
max.

Again maybe you don't have to ignore it. It may be monitoring something
else. And if you don't know what it is, it is fine to leave it enabled
without labels. One of the purposes of monitoring is to detect unusual
conditions, and that can be achieved even if you don't know which input
corresponds to what voltage.

The voltmeter won't tell you the mappings, only the scaling factors.
But you have to find out the mappings first. Secondly, what is the
accuracy of your voltmeter? Low-end models do often no better than 5%,
which makes them useless for this kind of exercise.

I am curious how you measured +3.3V, BTW. While +12V and +5V are easy
to measure on a molex connector, I wouldn't know where to measure +3.3V.

The usual way is to start from what the BIOS is displaying. Did you
check that? Without that, or detailed documentation from the vendor, it
is pretty hard to come up with a correct voltage sensor configuration.

I don't quite get you here. Sure, other users may use other fans, but
you should at least set proper limits for your personal case: this
can't be worse than the broken default values.

I like short labels and would go for "SBr Temp" and "NBr Temp", but up
to you.
