If this would be correct, my cpu wouldn't be a cpu but a light bulb :-) and the fan would most probably run on maximum speed non stop (which it doesn't do - it's running on minimum). CPU: AMD FX(tm)-4100 Quad-Core Processor Board: Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 Bios: Award F11 05/17/2012 Kernel: 3.4.10-1.1-desktop 64 bit (openSUSE) lmsensors: sensors-3.3.2-55.1.x86_64 Do you need more information about the hardware? Feel free to ask! Thanks for any hint, kind regards, Andreas Hartmann _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
