IC7-G & Motherboard Monitor Sensor Selection

I am using Motherboard Monitor 5 to monitor CPU temperature with an Abit IC7-G mobo. This application provides six options for the sensor (Winbond 1, Winbond 1 P2-Diode, Winbond 2, .... etc.). The selection makes a significant difference in the displayed CPU temperature.

What sensor is the appropriate sensor for the most accurate representation of the CPU (3 GHz Prescott) temperature?

You would have to play with them to see which one is the cpu temp. Install Speedfan first, then go into the bios and check your cpu temps against it.

Once you know which temp is the closest, then you can set MBM5 to it. That's how I did it.

Thanks, I did not know about Speedfan. I was able to use it to selectively stop the NB and CPU fans and see what temperatures changed.
