Haya ^_^

I've installed my old Pentium D 920 2.8GHz into a ASUS P5N32 SLi Deluxe

I tried RealTemp, Core Temp, and Hardware Monitor. None of them support my CPU

EVentually I tried Everest Ultimate and it reports 17C (A pentium D on stock cooling... 17C? OKay then :/

In BIOS it reads about 22-23 the last time I checked, so how can I find out an accurate reading? :)

Just installing some games to see if this mobo really does work (Y)

You could always measure the temperature of the heatsink using a probe/thermometer and then you'd at least get a value (it'd be a little below the CPU temp).

Otherwise I'm not sure you have much other option. Have you tried the ASUS website for a utility, their PCProbe software might be compatible.
