I see, interesting - for some reason I always thought the Intel censors 
are more accurate (judging by their measurements, because when I place a 
load on that machine, both Intel CPU readings jump, but the f71882fg 
driver barely moves a degree or two and stays in line with the rest of 
the sensors, which doesn't really makes sense - when the CPU is under 
load its temperature should rise rapidly).

I am totally confused now! :-\

The driver has only 3 temperature readings: temp[1..3]_input, 
corresponding to CPU (single censor, even though I've got 2 cores) and 2 
motherboard readings (one on the PC board extension card and another one 
on the main board itself).

So, I have the following values by default:

pwm1_auto_channels_pwm = 1 (1 binary - fan1)
pwm2_auto_channels_pwm = 2 (10 binary - fan2)
pwm3_auto_channels_pwm = 4 (100 binary - fan3)

Makes perfect sense since I do not have a 4th temperature reading 
anywhere on the system, unless you take into account the coretemp 
driver, which is in a different subdirectory: hwmon0 and not hwmon1 as 
the f71882fg driver is.
