I only use one Windows desktop though lmfao so it makes no sense for me to buy pro and get the remote monitoring goodness. yes and tbh I would like to see how many people use hwmonitor who would buy pro if the software were ported to linux.

I usually use cpuid hwmonitor but if there are any in-built software or methods. Some googling would show it is made by CPUID, so their site is probably the best bet. perhaps the correct/latest chipset driver is not installed allowing correct interpretation of all data from assorted MB sensors? (Relying on default detected/installed MS drivers can often give a functioning system, but rarely is the best of everything installed. You can also download Core Temp on Windows 11, 10, 7, 8, Vista, and XP. HWMonitor is VERY widely used in the tech and hardware reviewer industry, and this would be the first time I've heard of it being referred to as a 'poor piece of software', quite frankly.

If that is the case, other software with identical access to that particular reading (CPUTIN, which does not show on my own Z270 board, obviously) would give the same reading. Any piece of software might have a glitch with a particular chipset to me, unless there was some known issue with an HWMonitor and the X79 chipset (doubtful, as one would suspect the software would have been corrected many years ago,as the X79 board was/is widely used for the last 8 years), it is (in my opinion) more likely a motherboard sensor/sensor path issue (or even a missing sensor that the software has provisions for) itself.
