There are two reasons I don't buy bleeding edge. 1: Cost 2: Drivers not being ready and/or stable. My mobo is about a year old. That is enough time to let the kernel people sort out some nice drivers. Maybe someone here can point you to a place where you can see if they are being worked on. I'm sure there is a website with all kinds of info. The only one I can think of is http://kernel.org/ which shows a newer version than I have. May could see if they have new ones in them. Given what lm-sensors says and the fact the ones in the kernel don't work, I'm not sure what else to try. Dale :-) :_)
