AI-generated summary

The user is experiencing difficulty in obtaining the temperature and fan speed of their ASRock Z370M-pro4 motherboard using the Dynamix System Temperature application. After researching the issue, they discovered that the Dynamix System Temperature application is not widely compatible with motherboards, and the coretemp application does not support the ITE IT8686E Super IO Sensors. They found that some ASRock motherboards use the nct6683 sensor, which requires manual loading of the mod driver. To solve the problem, they suggest opening the terminal and manually loading the drivers. They provide the commands to load and unload the drivers and suggest checking if the Dynamix System Temperature application is functioning properly afterwards.

Motherboard Model: ASRock Z370M-pro4

Installed "Dynamix System Temperature" but unable to retrieve the temperature of the motherboard and fan speed.

After some research, the problem is roughly identified as follows:

Dynamix System Temperature is not a commercial application, so it can only verify a few motherboards.
coretemp does not support ITE IT8686E Super IO Sensors.
Some ASRock motherboards use the nct6683 sensor, which requires manual loading of the mod.

Now that we know the problem, the solution is simple. Open the terminal and manually load the driver:

$ modprobe coretemp
$ modprobe -r nct6683
$ modprobe nct6683 force=1

Then go back to "Dynamix System Temperature" and check if it is working properly.
