Where did I
ever say this. Go on. Find the quote.
I said I wanted the thermal sensor that feeds THERMTRIP to be visible

PROCHOT and THERMTRIP are registers which are either active or non active. They are set to active when a set temp is reached.
These two set temps are unique to each processor.
The trigger temp for PROCHOT and THERMTRIP is taken from the same temperature sensor.
THERMTRIP is always set higher than PROCHOT
THERMTRIP and PROCHOT temp triggers are set at factory and cannot ever be changed.
The only other temperature sensor is the on die thermal diode and has nothing to do with PROCHOT or THERMTRIP.

Arguing over agreement. What a waste of time.
