I have an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe with an AMD Athlon XP 2800+ and I am wondering if anyone knows where the temperature sensors are located on the MOBO. MBM 5 shows that there are 5 sensors labled: ASUS1 ASUS2 ASUS2(CUSL2) ASUS3 ASUS4 Each sensor is reading the following temperature: ASUS1 = 46C (I assume thats the CPU socket, it is the same in ASUS Probe) ASUS2 = 24C ASUS2 (CUSL2) cannot be selected ASUS3 = 125C ASUS4 = 25C So, if anyone could tell me where where each of these sensors are located (especially the 125C one.... seems quite hot) it would be greatly appreciated. Also, I am wondering where exactly the CPU diode is. Thanks.
Hey The thermal diode is in the core of the processor along with millions of transistors,capacitors and resistors. Check out this link. It may be usefull. http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16364
Hey From what i've seen it is normal. But i'm not that familiar with AMD. This may help you http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/24228.pdf You should contact AMD and ask them.
I still can't tell if I'm using my MB's socket temp sensor or my chip's diode sensor in MBM. It's getting late and I'm tired. I'll look for more info tomorrow.
