New build - temp mon help ? ?

Hi All

Have just built my new HTPC/Media server box, with the following spec.

P4 S478 3.0Ghz - Oc'ed to 3.3 on air
Asrock P4i65G motherboard
1GB DDR 400 OCZ Ram
Silverstone LC-11 case
ATI Radeon 9600 256mb

I have installed SpeedFan, and tried other motherboard temp monitors and it always gives me 4 readings.

I have correlated the readings with the temps in the BIOS thingie, and and fairly sure that my CPU is running about 45 degrees, motherboard about 37 or so, and hard drive about 37 too.

However, there is one reading of 63, and I cannot figure exactly where it is coming from, and what sensor it is reading ? I have done lots of googling but cannot find out how many sensors the motherboard has etc.

Anyone with any ideas ?

MOSFETs? Normally to the left side of the CPU by the ports I think.

Hmm, could try another temperature monitoring program just to see if it pics up temperature any differently, Speedfan was never the greatest. Check out PC Wizard 2007, and also the trial edition of Everest. See if the 60~ celcius number appears anywhere on there.
