I have an Nforce2 Based shuttle motherboards, the MN31L. I also have Hardware Sensors Monitor installed.

IT is telling me the following:
CPU1 - 40C
CPU2 - 46C
Mainboard - 53C

ANyone know where the motherboard temp reading is taken from on the mobo? Why is it so much higher than the CPU readings?
Also, why 2 CPU readings?? I only have 1 CPU
I have a good flowing inlet fan, and a quieter outlet fan plus the HSF pulls air out.
