    Under HWMonitor, there is a section for ACPI > THR1 and the temp is 46C (112F) After running for 5+ Hours now.<< Just for help determining what that sensor is. Thanks in advance.

    The thermal zone is your chipset temps. These ACPI temps trigger the fan control/speed. It usually sits near your CPU temps.

    No, its not the CPU/GPU/ or HDD.
