Sensors-detect with detect all hardware monitoring chips in the system, as long as it knows about them, and in the case of I2C/SMBus chips, that it has drivers for the busses. That being said, I still have to see a systems with two Super-I/O chips. > I too would like to know how to get my > email subject is "IT8712F-A and ECS-RX480A mainboard has erradic CPU > temp." How do we get these ECS boards to behave with the CPU temp? Well, maybe you would have received more help if you had been following my instructions when I tried to help you. > temp3 > didn't seem correctly because it's temperature didn't change to the work > load on the CPU. That will probably be the same for yours. Maybe, maybe not. Motherboards, even by the same manufacturer, can be very different in that matter. -- Jean Delvare
