There are several temperature guards on the motherboard (LEDs and beeps), however I the machine is remote enough that I want to have a check during long runs from my keyboard.

It is quite normal to have to configure the /etc/sensors.conf to match
your hardware.  Where to get the actual values needed can be tricky
unless the board maker is actually willing to get their engineers to
tell you the resistor values on the voltage inputs.

The same chip can be used on many boards after all and the meaning of
each input is up to the user of that chip.

For example the same chip you have at the bottom of your list is used on
the router I work on.  The output of sensors on it (which has been
configured properly) is:

w83627hf-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore A:   +2.51 V  (min =  +2.37 V, max =  +2.62 V)
VCore B:   +1.20 V  (min =  +1.14 V, max =  +1.26 V)
+3.3 PS1:  +3.30 V  (min =  +3.14 V, max =  +3.47 V)
+5V:       +5.05 V  (min =  +4.76 V, max =  +5.24 V)
+12V:     +12.52 V  (min = +10.82 V, max = +13.19 V)
+3.3 PS2:  +0.02 V  (min =  +3.14 V, max =  +3.47 V)       ALARM
VBat:      +3.02 V  (min =  +2.40 V, max =  +3.60 V)

As you can see some of the values are quite different and we even
changed the labels on some due to how we connected them.  My particular
unit on my desk has only one power supply installed, which explains the
lack of power on the second power supply input.
