Seems to work here, thank you very much!

nct6775: Found NCT6798D or compatible chip at 0x0:0x290
nct6775: Using Asus WMI to access chip

$ sensors

nct6798-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter

I'm only curious why it continues to say ISA adapter which doesn't seem
technically correct.

Anyways, please submit for Linux 5.13 - it mustn't be too late as we are now in
a merge window.
