Introduction to ASUS Motherboard Sensor Support
Meanwhile, ASUS desktop motherboards have been gaining broader sensor monitoring support on Linux.
For example, ASUS motherboards for Intel and AMD processors have seen more support added thanks to the open-source community.
Recent Additions to ASUS Motherboard Support
Additionally, queued up over the past week have been more ASUS motherboard support additions.
These will land in the hardware monitoring subsystem’s ‘hwmon-next’ Git branch ahead of the Linux 7.1 merge window in April.
Furthermore, these latest ASUS motherboard sensor support additions include the ROG STRIX Z790-H GAMING WIFI.
Initially, it has VRM and T_Sensor thermal sensors supported.
However, on the AMD side, there is also ROG STRIX X470-F GAMING support with temperature sensors, CPU current, and CPU voltage support.
Newer Board Support
Moreover, a newer board also being supported is the ROG CROSSHAIR X670E EXTREME.
The ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X670E EXTREME with the ASUS-EC-Sensors driver now has various temperature sensors support.
This includes support from the CPU to VRM to T_Sensor to any water cooling usage as well.
Finally, outside of the ASUS motherboard additions over the past week, queued in hwmon-next is also GPD Win 5 support.
This is in the HWMON driver for the AMD Ryzen AI Max ‘Strix Halo’ handheld.
Conclusion and Future Improvements
In conclusion, we can expect more hardware monitoring improvements to land in hwmon-next over the weeks ahead for Linux 7.1.
Therefore, users of ASUS motherboards can look forward to expanded sensor monitoring support on Linux.
