I have the dreaded GA-5AX rev. 4.1 (Gigabyte super socket 7 motherboard for K6-x processors). It does not show you the temperature in the BIOS and all hardware monitoring programs fail to find any hardware monitoring. The reason being they decided they didn't need a WinBond chip and skimped out on it! Instead they implemented some dodgy software version which probably explains this motherboard's poor performance.

You can not find out the temperature. The motherboard supposedly slows your CPU when it overheats but that doesn't seem to work either. On this motherboard performance is slow all the time and stability is poor.

Biggest mistake I made buying a Gigashite motherboard!
