LM_sensors has always had problems getting useful info out of Asus 
motherboards.  Believe me, I first met the problem about 5-6 years ago.  There 
is a text file comes with it that gives you as much info as it can about 
working with mobos from different vendors, but after trying everything I could 
I never got more than one sensor out of it.
