Sensor 1 is rigged as the CPU (49 C), sensor 2 i presume is my case/mobo temp (38 C), and I also have a sensor 3 (23 C). What is sensor 3, I dont have a third temp reading on my VIA hardware monitor, so what could it be? Not a massively important question, granted, but its bugging me never the less! :confused: :D

Might be a temp sensor or fan speed for Power supply. I use an Enermax EG465P-VE(FC) for an ASUS A7N8X DX. It has a fan control and speed monitor with temp control.

interestinly enough, sensor 1 is my north bridge (i guess???) and sensor 2 is my CPU. at least that's what i'm assuming since i have sensor 1 set to "winbond 1" and it is only 32*C, and i have sensor 2 set to "winbond 2 diode" and it reads 42*C. when i set sensor 3 to "winbond 3" i get 37*C. i have no idea where this temp is reading from. in fact, i suppose sensor 3 could be my north bridge and sensor 2 may be something else. anyone think they might know which sensors are where on an Abit IS7? thanks...
