Is anybody aware of software, hardware, anyware that accesses the thermal diode built into Intel procs? I see by data sheets that it's there but I know of no way to access it. Any knowledge or thoughts would be much appreciated.

MBM accesses the HWmonitoring chip on the mobo. This chip doesn't access the diode on the proc. It has it's own and gives system temp not specifically cpu temp.
