Sensors not working properly and loud fans
When I started the PC today I noticed it was louder, the fans speed was higher than normal and didn't go down despite the air coming out itself feeling cool as well. I checked the sensors in the "sensors" part of system information and it seems that some sensors are not working properly. The RPM for fans is locked at 65k, CPU sensor is saying it's at 6°C, while system is at 66°C and not moving. The NVME and GPU sensors work fine

In the BIOS the snsors work correctly
I'm trying to find other ways to check the temperatures from within the OS other than the "sensors" tab in Info centre but the other programs for that (psensor, lm-sensor) that I knew about aren't in bazaar
I'm afraid it's not safe to play games on it now since if it doesn't go down once it's cool then I presume it won't go higher should it get hot
On OS Tree: 1 the fans are not as loud, but the sensors tab still doesn't work
or i mean, specifically the ones that didn't work before. GPU, NVME and the ones that did work still do
Did those nct sensors show after running through sensors-detect? I had a similar issue till it detected the right sensor.
