What are the CPU temperature sensors like on the Abit NF7-S? I only ask because when I switched motherboards (from a Gigabyte) I noticed that my reported temperatures went up a considerable amount. I'm not alarmed, they are still reasonably low, but I'd like to know if they are overreporting or just giving me a reality check.
On an unrelated note; anybody know why there is an ATX12v connection on the motherboard? It's in the shape of a square, 2x2, and just above the regular ATX power connector, if you're wondering. For a week I ran the board without a hitch before I noticed that wasn't connected. I gathered it wasn't necessary, but I connected it anyway. The board didn't catch fire, so I figure it isn't doing any harm, but I'm very curious anyway!
Cheers,
Clayton.
