Posted this in motherboards but it's gone a week or more with no response and it does directly concern my watercooling loop so I'll try it here.

I bought a corsair XD3 pump/res combo and plugged the temp sensor that comes with it into my temp sensor on my motherboard - Asus rog strix B550i gaming. Where can I see the reading? I thought it would show up in HWmonitor but I can't seem to find it.

Use Hwinfo64 , it should read it there, HWmonitor is outdated these days.

Has it been enabled in the BIOS first? Are you going to need some Asus garbage like Armoury Crate to actually access it?

all the temp sensors on the motherboard do seem to read tmpin 1- 8 so i assumed it was one of them just i couldnt notice any change i would associate with my water temps. ill give this ago aswell.

thanx for the tips.
 
I have a strix z490 and run ai suite 3.

Mine showed up automatically in this software and cpuz hardware info I think as one of the Tmpin figures.
 
ok so i got that hwinfo64. wow that interface is awful. moved 5 of the temp sensors i am interested in to their own page and set to the tray aswell.

yea the temp sensor is displayed in that without doing anything extra. T_Sensor its called.

Yeah it's not the best , but it's miles better than the Asus bloatware and once you get used to it it's a very useful tool
