Ok, that may explain the behavior of the PCI sensor I reported in the subsequent message. Perhaps the temperature needs to be higher before the sensor is stable? The actual temperature is about 45°C according to an IR thermometer. > > What about the temp1 and temp2 sensors on it87? > > You can try putting some load on the CPU to see if any of these > correspond to the CPU temperature (it would rise faster.) Well, I tried that, but both temp1 readings soar. OTOH, I did not notice the it87 temp1 reading going up when I shut off the Coolant fan. With all 8 cores running greater than 25% and two of them running more than 50%, the it87 temp1 is running around 51°C and the k10temp temp1 is about 41°C.

If you do, and go from the BIOS As I recall, yes. A couple of them were off the chart, however.

Do you mean bypassing GRUB? _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
