I have to same board and HWMonitor gives me a -128 Deg reading. Damn my water cooling is working well. I basically ignore that reading.

There has been allot of talk at times about TMPIN2 ..... to this date I can't remember anyone ever beeing able to say what it is and for the most part it is ignored. Think of it like this if something was that hot you would be able to smell it and probably see it glow.

there are some false sensors on most motherboards. I have sensor that shows -100C and another 100C, just ignore such reading, they must be false

If a sensor is not being used on that register it will read trash values. Same goes when temperatures are out of normal working range. (Usually -30 to +XXX)
If you ever get ridiculous values (over 100c) and nothing is burning then there's no issue.
