Yes, it's because we've recently added support for measuring the secondary temperature for NVMe SSDs. In the next AIDA64 beta the two lines will be joined together to avoid confusion.

Embedded Controller (EC) is a special chip on your motherboard that extends the usual sensor measurement capabilities of the Super I/O chip (that's also on your motherboard) with special readings. However, on some Asus motherboards polling (reading) EC registers can cause slowdowns and latency spikes. In which case it's best to disable EC support in AIDA64, and by that sacrificing a few sensor readings. If you make a screen shot or photo of the Computer / Sensor page with and without the EC options enabled, you can see which values you would lose when you disable EC support. In most case those are not vital sensor readings, and there are only a few of them.

Thank you for your message. I'm happy that you would translate our app to Japanese. I'll send you the XML file in email.

I don't think that reading is valid, but it's hard to tell. Can you please check whether you can see the same VRM thermal reading in the UEFI Setup (BIOS Setup), or in ASRock's own monitoring utility called F-Stream Tuning utility?

First of all, make sure to upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. That should help about issue #1 and #2. If not, then please let me know where exactly are all your fans connected to (motherboard or water cooler/coolers), and whether the motherboard connected fans are "iffy" or the ones connected to your water cooler/coolers. As for #3, as you can see on the AIDA64 OSD Panel shots, there're quite a few thermal readings available for your CPU, namely "CPU", "CPU Package" and 4 core temperatures. iCUE could indicate any of those as CPU temperature, or it could simply show the liquid temperature of your water cooler as CPU temperature.

Make sure to upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. As for "package", it means the whole CPU package, including all cores and uncore. The whole 5x5 cm sized thin package of metal

Please try to disable the two Embedded Controller related options in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability, and restart AIDA64 to apply the changes. Let me know if it makes a difference.

No toolbar button just yet. You can switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring, or via the right-click context menu on the Sensor page. Thank you for your feedback!

It's already done. I'll send you a special beta build link email in a minute. It would be awesome if you (you and your friends as well) could send us some feedbacks on how usable the joined lines are now for you.

I guess you're too old-school to hassle with the OSD Panel BTW, if you want to reset the order of items on the OSD Panel, you can do that by editing the AIDA64.INI file, and removing all lines that start with OSDItem_. Make sure to _not_ have AIDA64 running while you edit the AIDA64.INI file.

If you leave the SensorPanel open when you exit AIDA64, it will automatically open again when you start AIDA64 the next time.

GPU-Z doesn't have an API or SDK, so it's not possible to use its detection capabilities by 3rd party applications.

You can do that one-time customization of the sensor readings using any other module of AIDA64 With SensorPanel you wouldn't have to hassle with editing the language module...

If you have the OSD Panel enabled, it is displayed quicker than if you first had to navigate to Computer, then Sensor... If you don't have it enabled, then right-clicking on the AIDA64 System Tray icon --> Show OSD Panel will display the OSD Panel quickly. And you can still use the hot-keys as well. If you mean quickly glancing on sensor readings on a new system, then I agree, the Sensor page is great and superior to deep-customizing the OSD Panel or SensorPanel. Then again, you seem to bring up conflicting issues and situations. On one hand you're advocating for a deeper customization of the Sensor page -- but on the other hand you find it quicker to go to the Sensor page for a quick glancing on sensor readings. If you need something quickly, customizing Sensor page, OSD Panel or SensorPanel are equally time consuming in my book. If you have time to customize the Sensor page, then -- at least the way I see it -- you can spend that time on customizing the OSD Panel or SensorPanel instead. Maybe I miss something, but I still cannot see the real use scenario where customizing the Sensor page is superior to making your own layout for OSD Panel or SensorPanel.

You can either manually launch AIDA64, minimize it to the System Tray, and then you can use the hot-keys to show/hide OSD Panel or SensorPanel -- or you can configure AIDA64 to be automatically launched at Windows startup, as well as you can configure it to be started with its main window automatically minimized to the System Tray. Either way, if you want to use the Sensor page, OSD Panel or SensorPanel features, AIDA64 first needs to be started somehow.

It's still not clear to me why you cannot use the OSD Panel or SensorPanel instead of the Sensor page. You can configure a hot-key to show/hide them anytime you want, so it wouldn't occupy any desktop space...

That's not an option, since new versions bring other fixes, improvements and new features. We need to make sure everyone is satisfied somehow. Which is not easy when you have a popular software like AIDA64

Noone but a few enthusiasts read the changelog. And the change will be included in the next stable release as well, and its changelog doesn't cover all minor changes. We'll see how users will cope with the new way the Sensor page would work.

The problem is that when we display the 2 readings in the same line, it looks very crowded with both the Celsius and Fahrenheit readings. So we need to apply the Fahrenheit option (in Preferences / Hardware Monitoring) to the Sensor page as well. But then the problem is that existing AIDA64 users are used to having both Celsius and Fahrenheit readings on the Sensor page, and they may not be able to quickly find the option to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit readings. So we may need to add a new button to the toolbar to make that setting more visible to users.

Okay, then I misunderstood your post. No problem, no need to merge posts or topics. We will however need to rethink some of the thermal measurement methods to make sure everyone is satisfied with the secondary NVMe temperature measurement and indication.

You've proposed in the following other topic that the 2 lines should be joined together: And above you've proposed the same idea.

Yes, but it's not a fault, but a peculiarity.

Please avoid posting a single issue into multiple topics.

You're the first one to bring that up in 19 years So I don't think it's that confusing to users.

That setting doesn't apply to the Computer / Sensor page, but only for the hardware monitoring modules (Sensor Icons, OSD, Desktop Gadget, LCD, SensorPanel).
