Z270N Gaming 5 High temperatures

[fadsarmy]

Hi, according to AIDA64, HWINFO and others, this board has two additional temperature sensors (Aux and PCI-E) in addition to 4 documented by Gigabyte. What's really concerning is that both are very high and when I blow hot air over the board, these temperatures rise further, so I believe these are correct but very worrying. Should I be concerned?

Greetings,
I'm not disputing the existence of these sensors... but where are you getting this info from?  Are you just assuming they exist based on what Aida shows?

Contact Aida and ask them wheat the Aux listing is monitoring?
The PCIe is likely the GPU or slot

This is an interesting board due to the location of the m.2 connector

Do you have your CPU fan speed cranked down? Or are you cooling with water?  662 seems low.  Airflow through the case is important.

Based on cpu temp, cpu fan speed is okay. Even when I ramp up the cpu fan speed, the temps don't go down. I know someone with an identical board with the same problem so i guess it's got to do with third party hardware monitors reading erroneously.
