Hm, did it really happen that way, or have you been cutting a part? (I
hope so.)

Exactly what I had expected.

Most chips don't monitor negative voltages anymore. I would bet that
your BIOS won't show these values either, so you can safely ignore them
(add "ignore" statements in your configuration file).

VCore 1/2 limits are wrong because of your bad vid reading (last line).
Try changing the vrm to 9.0 (uncomment one line in the configuration
file) and run "sensors -s", see if it helps. If it doesn't, set these
limits using real values instead of references to vid.

Fan values look OK, limits are way too low. Try changing divisors
(typical value is 2), it might help. Don't forget to run "sensors -s" as
root afterwards.

Temperatures look OK too, except the missing limits for temp1. Tweak
your config file to set the limits as you want them.

After that, you should have a fine-tuned hardware monitoring
configuration :)
