Re: [lm-sensors] ASRock E350M1 configuration

[Jaap de Wolff <jaap@de-wolff.org>]

Hi,

I modified my config file for in2,3,7 and 8 as you told me.
Now it tells me for in8 that it is 3.42 V which is (very) high for a 
CMOS battery.

The voltage of the DRAM can be set in BIOS (as almost all voltages are 
on this MB), between 1.3 and 2 V.
But you are right, if I adjust it to 1.8 V, the reading of in4 does not 
change, so it has to be another value.

Most read voltage values are pretty  stable.
The only values that are really fluctuating are in0 and in1, both 
between 0.95 and 1.35 V
Other voltages only change 0.01 or at most 0.02 V.

In4 fluctuates between 1.37 and 1.38V.

The PCH voltage can be set in the bios, but changing it does not change 
any reading.
