Yep, looks alright to me now :) You're lucky, out of 4 boards with the
IT8716F chip, this is the only one with valid VID readings...

The chip at 0x2e is most certainly a second hardware monitoring chip. I
just found out that the Asus M2N32-SLI has an Analog Devices ADT7475
for the additional fans, I would suspect that your board are the same
or a very similar chip.

I added detection of a bunch of new Analog Devices chips to
sensors-detect a few minutes ago, can you please fetch it, give it a
try and report?

For this one you can pick these patches:
