Hello all,

iStat Pro shows four heatsink temperature sensors for MBP 3.1 17":
Heatsink A
Heatsink B
Heatsink C
GPU Heatsink.

Where they are actually located?

Heatsink A sensor shows temperature higher then CPU temp (when CPU is not overloaded), but lower then GPU temp. So, it most likely located near GPU, and closer to GPU then GPU Heatsink, because it shows higher temperature then GPU Heasink.

Heatsink B sensor shows lowest temperature between heatsink sensors. Most likely, it is located near Northbridge.

So, Heatsink C should be located near CPU heatsink.

Am I right?
