Sure, but who knows if they put a sensor below the CPU for some reason ...

I am not familiar with the A10 CPUs. Are those similar to K10 ?
If so, maybe the k10temp driver works or could be extended to support it.
Can you give it a try ?

If it does not work out of the box, can you send me the output of "lspci -nn" ?

The most recent version of sensors-detect should support it.
