Temperature monitoring for Core i3 CPUs

I have a i3 330M and lm-sensors results in nothing. Any ideas?

Possibly because lm-sensors don't have drivers for i3 yet...it depends on what Northbridge you have, I don't know for Intels which NB is which.

Re: Temperature monitoring for Core i3 CPUs

I've dug up some more info..

For temperature monitoring, a QST SDK is needed for supporting the ICH8 southbridge. The OpenAMT project is working on that (http://www.openamt.org/), but there doesn't seem to be much progess.

However, it looks like Intel will be releasing an SDK itself. See: http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/ … hp?t=54851
Maybe after that we will have temperature & voltage monitoring support for all Nehalem and Arrandale chipsets.
