So people, ik heb dus een mailtje naar asus gestuurd waar nou die thermal jumper op stand 'reserved' voor is. NIET voor de diode dus zo te zien, maar ik kreeg in ieder geval deze 'vage' reactie. Ik kom er niet veel wijs uit in ieder geval. Onderaan staat het mailtje dat ikzelf gestuurd had. Misschien heeft iemand er wat aan 
Hallo,
Ik denk dat u de jumper bedoeld voor Thermal Sensor. Deze jumper is er voor
om
te kijken welke cpu welke hitte aan kan. 71 graden is overigens niet heel
erg heet,
een a7v266 mag gerust 80 graden worden.
Met vriendelijke groeten,
Johan

Hi people at asus!
I've got a little quistion about the board, about the thermal jumper. The
reserved setting, there are alot of speculations about it, but IS it or is
it NOT the way to use the xp's own thermal diode? When having the jumper
set to the standard athlon/duron setting, I get extremely high temperatures
of 55 celcius idle and 71(!) full load. That's with an enormous heatsink
equiped with an 8cm fan. My case is even open, and even with a big
table-fan (which is used in summer when it's hot in house) pointed right
inside the case I got the temp 1 degree lower...
I haven't overclocked a single mhz, and there's artic silver used for
cool-paste.
When I though the heatsink at full-load, (cpu is 71 degrees according to
asus probe) the heatsink is indeed warm (at the place as close to the cpu i
can reach) but not so hot that i burn my fingers. If the temperature would
be about 65 degrees, which would be reasonable about a few millimeters from
the core, i thing my fingers would hurt immediately
So please tell me (you'd help alot of other a7v266 owners with this) if the
reserved setting is indeed the setting for xp's own thermal diode.
Thanks in advance,
