Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 - system temperature sensor?

Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7

I'm confused as to what the "system temperature sensor" is, which is listed on page 7 of the manual (at least this online version)

I'm trying to see if this board is compatible with a Bitspower Temperature Sensor Stop Fitting

I've watched various videos, and looked at images of this board, but can't find this sensor, if it is indeed a physical male pin header. Am I completely confused about this?

Thanks.

The board you're referring to is this

while the temperature sensor you're talking about is this

Which are essentially two pins extruded from the motherboard/PCB and will only contain two pins to connect to a thermal coupling.

You're going to need to have something like a T_SENSOR1

on your board.

You could invest in a fan controller that accepts thermal probes to it.

Thank you for the response. You're correct, that is the board I'm referring to, and provided a link for.
I'm not seeing a T_SENSOR header at all on this board, so I don't believe that it will support the Bitspower Temperature Sensor Stop Fitting. I'm not keen on installing a third party fan controller, and can live without the temp reading.
