Thermal Protections on KT333 and KT266A boards

I know Asus A7V333 and Soltek KT333 boards have a thermal protection built into it, and others have thermal diodes to measure cpu temperature.

Are there any KT266A boards that have these overheat protection systems? It seems like a GREAT tool to have on board for overclockers.
 
the non + 8k3a's do too...

unfortunately with the a7v333 and soltek drv5, the int. didoe temps are only used for the CPU overburn protection... they are not readable by the end user.

I just put together a Gigabyte (KT333) board and the lowest thermal shutdown setting was 80c (went as high as 105c), seems it would have fried before reaching that temp.
 
The Epox 8kha+ KT266A does not support the internal XP diode temp, but it does have thermal protection built-in based on socket thermistor.
In the Bios I set shutdown at 65c, but I think you can go even lower than that.
