hardware monitoring

[drforbin]

Just started using FreeBSD and love it. I am a old time Linux and Solaris user. I need to be able to monitor CPU temperature/MB temperature and fans if possible. I'm tried sysctl(8) and the various other utilities in ports. I get some data but it's crazy, like 255C.

Any wiki or ideas how to get this working?

thanxs Thanks in advance.

It depends a lot on the processor and mainboard but there's coretemp(4), aibs(4) and amdtemp(4) for example.

Thank you SirDice

I tried loading aibs(4)() and then doing a sysctl dev.aibs.0.{volt,temp,fan}.
It appears to be working as evidenced by the following;

dev.aibs.0.volt.0: 1328 800 1800
dev.aibs.0.volt.1: 3376 2970 3630
dev.aibs.0.volt.2: 4999 4500 5500
dev.aibs.0.volt.3: 12224 10200 13800
dev.aibs.0.temp.0: 34.0C 60.0C 75.0C
dev.aibs.0.temp.1: 32.0C 45.0C 75.0C
dev.aibs.0.fan.0: 1397 600 7200
dev.aibs.0.fan.1: 2986 600 7200
dev.aibs.0.fan.2: 979 600 7200

So what do you think, success?

I'll support the topic because I stumbled.
I can't understand why the team doesn't want to raise the sensors of the 2016 ASUS motherboard.
