    I've only ever seen those readings in various desktops.

    Probably means System Temperature Input, CPU and Auxiliary whatever that is ._. System might be the overall temp of the motherboard maybe? CPU's clearly the CPU Temp and the Aux, no idea ._.

    ^Yea. Usually those are bogus, or are chipset temperatures, or in some cases video card temp sensors. But like Forge said, I've only seen them on desktop boards, and 75% of the time they were bogus readings.

    I have learned to take HWMon with a grain of salt. When I get bogus readings on my Desktop of +1.74 (+12v) and my 2500rpm CPU fan sometimes reads at 335,000+ rpm :rolleyes:

    And my laptop GPU temps read 47c when it's been off for hours and just powered on but the CPU temps read 28c. I wonder why I even bother with HWMon.
