I observe a very high value for CPUTIN, namely 96.5C, far above the high 
limit of 80C, that seems inconsistent with all the other values of 
temperature provided by lm-sensors, in the range of the 30s C. And also 
seems inconsistent with the BIOS values: CPU 37C, MB 33C. Besides, I guess 
that the CPU would no longer work at that temperature...

Find appended below the information requested in the FAQ, as far as I have
understood it as relevant for this case. Just tell me whether additional
information is needed.

So, I wonder whether this is a bug, a weakness of the sensor (diode?) and
possible solutions or workarounds.

I see. However, if this NCT6776F register were wrongly programed, it seems
to me like there should be a systematic error in the reported temperature.
However, this is not what I am observing. For instance, the value of PECI 0 in
my first post (showing the complete output) was 33.5C, with all the other
temperatures (except CPUTIN) in a close range. Now its value is about 30C (+/-
1C, I am following it with xsensors), again in close agreement with the other
readings.

So, it seems to me like something else caused yesterday that PECI 0 had
reported a value over 10C below "normal". Two things come to my mind: an
erratic failure of this device, or that previously to the reported low
reading, I had booted to Win 7 and installed SpeedFan 4.47 (as a check about
the high value reported for the CPU).

I will keep looking at the PECI 0 value as summer comes here shortly...

In any case, are the values reported by Core 0 to 3 more reliable?

Alejandro

PECI is actually _very_ inaccurate for low temperatures, so this is not really
surprising.

Good question. I don't really know; those are also known to be inaccurate
for low temperatures.
