I have been trying to figure this out for the longest time now. There are 3 temps listen in MBM 5, right now I have 23'C, 30'C, 35'C. I know which one the proc is, it's the one that shoots up to 45'C after playing Quake 3, LOL. I am wondering which of the other 2 is the case temp and which is the chipset temp. I have tried takeing the case covers off, but I have so many fans in there that the temp on all 3 sensors either doesn't change or only drops by 1'C. Does anybody know what temp is what? I need the temps for "sensor 1" and "sensor 2" on the KT7A-Raid, "sensor 3" is my proc. Thanks in advance.

The 35C is your CPU temp. It should show as VIA686B-3 in MBM. The 30C is your case temp and should show as VIA686B-2 in MBM. The 23C I haven't been able to figure out. I've never seen mine change. I thought it was the Northbridge, but I don't think that's the case as it is always 23C.

MBM also lists this info on the website here http://mbm.livewiredev.com/
