Judging from the OHM source, it looks like some Asus boards have AUXTIN connected, others don't. -60 degrees C suggests that there is nothing connected to the sensor pin. > where did you get exactly those information about what is what ? Could you put > some URL or documentation ? Open Hardware Monitor source code, http://open-hardware-monitor.googlecode.com/svn. I don't see CPUTIN on your screen shot. I only see "CPU" and "CPU socket", but I don't see anything suggesting that those report the temperature as measured on the CPUTIN pin of the NCT6776F. To know how the values reported by the AI suite map to board sensors, it would be necessary to see its source code and/or configuration files.
