There is also an ambient temp sensor board Apple put into the G5 towers and later to read incoming air temp. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor

It would be nice if they posted a screen shot to confirm. The card has no sensor I believe, and according to the stuff on the developer's site I see no setting for Airport temps. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor

Jim_ aka Reboot Registered: 04/21/02 Posts: 13595 Loc: Columbus OH	We have a final answer. And if that's after the machine was running for a while the original poster's card does seem a bit hot. I wonder what a long download would do to the temp. Edited by Reboot (01/17/09 02:43 PM) _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor
