Hi all, i'm using motherboard monitor and as i configure all my temperature sensors i haven't found onw answer, as i have got 3 sensors and as is it ovbious one if from the CPU with a temperature range of 40º-55º other is from the ambient temperature has a range of 22º-32º (yes i'm sure it is the ambient) but there is a third onw i don't know what the hell is, it has a very little range from 19º to 21º i try to guess what can have a temperature lower than the ambient, but i can't find it, if someone have some idea of it can be it would be useful to me, thanks
 
What motherboard are you using? I used to have a K7S5A, and I know that they have a CPU sensor, a case sensor, and a 'ghost' sensor... that doesn't seem to exist, but comes up in MBM.
 
mine has a ghost sensor as the thrid also, which stayed at 32f (for both of my last 2 mobos). and i guess i never thought of it before, where exactly is the mobo sensor at? i'm thinking the northbridge, but i'm not sure.
 
i suspect it at first but i certainly know that the ambient temperature is always higher than the temperature showed by that sensor and it's impossible running a NB cooler than the air using air cooling
 
also i have no idea of where this sensor is located, i only see the CPU sensor in the socket, neither the ambient and the ghost one
