My new mobo came with a temperature probe, so today I decided to install it as it has a long cable and required routing behind the mobo and I stuck it to the back side of the one ram heatsink and in bios it reports fine but I have no idea how to check it outside the bios. I have tried Hwinfo64 and CPUID HWMonitor but can't seem to find it in either.

In bios it reports as T_SEN1, anyone know a program that can read this from windows?

Nevermind I found him, sneaky bugger.

Yes, MSI uses the NUC126 (Nuvoton) microcontroller for monitoring some system sensors. There's one on the MSI MPG B-550I Gaming Wifi mobo in my daily driver PC.

In HWiNFO you need to expand all of the sensor menus the first time and read through them carefully. My Asus motherboards are similar, some of the sensor readings are handled by other microcontrollers.

Sometimes these microcontroller sensor readings aren't adjacent to the main motherboard section, they are elsewhere in the HWiNFO readout.
