Motherboard monitor

[Newbienumber1]

this is a followup about the gigabyte board.

will motherboard monitor take the temp from the cpu even tho the motherboard does not monitor the temp?

Thanks in advance

No, you have to have a heat sensor to monitor the temp. If the board does not have one take a look at some third party units like Digital Doc 5 that come with temp sensors you install.

I can appreciate confusion here. If you go into sisoft sandra w/the 8sg667 you'll notice that it does actually produce a measurement for your CPU temp. That is, a measurement that changes wildly every time you refresh it. You would think it would show a 0 or say something about it being "not supported" rather than freaking out like that.
