Mac Pro 3,1 - sensor clairification needed

Post by dxvinnyxb »

I need more information about sensors listed as DIMM Module 1 and DIMM Module 2, Mac Pro 3,1 uses two riser cards and is equipped with 8 banks total. I need to know how the temps are calculated for these two sensor listings, are they averages among each respective riser card? or do they really represent dimm slot one and dimm slot 2?

All sendors information is obtained by the system, MFC just displays it.

please post a screenshot of Macs Fan Control on your MacPro3,1

thank you. Everything looks really great here. Though I can't see the rest of sensors (not enough window height)
