ASUS A8N-SLI mb temp readings

[rauskis]

Im using ASUS Probe to monitor my computers temperatures. Where does motherboards temperature actually come? Is there some kind of sensor in the northbridge or where does it read the temp??!

Cpu Temp 39C
Mobo Temp 38C surfing the net

I would like to know that as well...

Looks like the mobo temperature..is not the Nforce4 chip temperature..but just a probe somewhere in the mobo (where?)

That is quite important before people consider alternative cooling options for the stock chipset fan...

I have seen around that DFI has a temperature for the NB specific....
