0026 Description:
0027 ------------
0028 ASUS mainboards publish hardware monitoring information via WMI interface.
0029
0030 ASUS WMI interface provides a methods to get list of sensors and values of
0031 such, which is utilized by this driver to publish those sensor readings to the
0032 HWMON system.
0033
0034 The driver is aware of and reads the following sensors:
0035 * CPU Core Voltage,
0036 * CPU SOC Voltage,
0037 * DRAM Voltage,
0038 * VDDP Voltage,
0039 * 1.8V PLL Voltage,
0040 * +12V Voltage,
0041 * +5V Voltage,
0042 * 3VSB Voltage,
0043 * VBAT Voltage,
0044 * AVCC3 Voltage,
0045 * SB 1.05V Voltage,
0046 * CPU Core Voltage,
0047 * CPU SOC Voltage,
0048 * DRAM Voltage,
0049 * CPU Fan RPM,
0050 * Chassis Fan 1 RPM,
0051 * Chassis Fan 2 RPM,
0052 * Chassis Fan 3 RPM,
0053 * HAMP Fan RPM,
0054 * Water Pump RPM,
0055 * CPU OPT RPM,
0056 * Water Flow RPM,
0057 * AIO Pump RPM,
0058 * CPU Temperature,
0059 * CPU Socket Temperature,
0060 * Motherboard Temperature,
0061 * Chipset Temperature,
0062 * Tsensor 1 Temperature,
0063 * CPU VRM Temperature,
0064 * Water In,
0065 * Water Out,
0066 * CPU VRM Output Current.
0067
0068 Known Issues:
0069 * The WMI implementation in some of Asus' BIOSes is buggy. This can result in
0070 fans stopping, fans getting stuck at max speed, or temperature readouts
0071 getting stuck. This is not an issue with the driver, but the BIOS. The Prime
0072 X470 Pro seems particularly bad for this. The more frequently the WMI
0073 interface is polled the greater the potential for this to happen. Until you
0074 have subjected your computer to an extended soak test while polling the
0075 sensors frequently, don't leave you computer unattended. Upgrading to new
0076 BIOS version with method version greater than or equal to two should
0077 rectify the issue.
0078 * A few boards report 12v voltages to be ~10v.
