Yes it is OK, VSB and Vbat are secondary power sources, they don't have to be as stable as +5V and +12V. 3.42V vs. 3.39V is completely fine. Anyway these are internally scaled voltage inputs so you just can't get them wrong. > And, I realize my layout of this conf is probably not standard, but I put it in the order I was figuring it out with comments (some taken directly from your replies) to hopefully remind me of things if needed in the future. > > ------------------------------------------------------- > [root@gateway ~]# nano /etc/sensors.d/MSI-MS-9832.conf > chip "f71882fg-isa-0a10" > > # Ignore - Voltage > # The F71882FG uses an 8-bit, 8 mV LSB ADC for voltage monitoring. > # This means that it can measure up to 2.04 V directly.

Also according to http://ark.intel.com/products/35641/Intel-Atom-Processor-330-1M-Cache-1_60-GHz-533-MHz-FSB the Vcore range for this CPU is 0.9V-1.1625V so in1_max should be set to 1.1625 * 1.05. > > # Fans > label fan1 "CPU Fan" > label fan2 "Sys Fan" > > set fan1_min 2100 > set fan2_min 1400 > > # Temperatures > label temp1 "CPU Temp" > label temp3 "Sys Temp" > > set temp1_max 60 > set temp1_max_hyst 58 > set temp3_max 50 > set temp3_hyst 48 Subfeature temp3_hyst doesn't exist, you meant temp3_max_hyst. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Sensors now displays nearly identical results to BIOS HW monitor. > > -------------------------------------------------- > [root@gateway ~]# sensors > coretemp-isa-0000 > Adapter: ISA adapter > Core 0: +26.0°C (high = +70.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) > Core 1: +28.0°C (high = +70.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) > > f71882fg-isa-0a10 > Adapter: ISA adapter > +3.3V: +3.42 V > Vcore: +1.16 V (max = +2.04 V) > +5V: +5.09 V > +12V: +12.23 V > 3VSB: +3.39 V > Vbat: +3.41 V > CPU Fan: 4587 RPM > Sys Fan: 2901 RPM > CPU Temp: +46.0°C (high = +85.0°C, hyst = +81.0°C) > (crit = +100.0°C, hyst = +96.0°C) sensor = transistor > Sys Temp: +40.0°C (high = +70.0°C, hyst = +68.0°C) > (crit = +85.0°C, hyst = +83.0°C) sensor = transistor > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Your thoughts? That you did a good job :) So I added your configuration file (with the fixes above) at: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Configurations/MSI/IM-945GC So other users can benefit.
