Really? I would expect tz0 to be CPU temperature (via ACPI but still=20
probably using the same diode as coretemp would read).

That said I don't recall any system I have ever run FreeBSD one having=20
more than tz0 :)

=46WIW the Core 2 Duo in my "games" machine which is overclocked from 2.13=
=20
to 3.06GHz idles at 60C and gets up to 75C when under heavy use. Before=20
overclocking it used to idle around 50C (that appeared to be the BIOS's=20
target temperature)

68.5C for a standard C2D on a nominally idle system seems very high.

=2D-=20
