Yes, I RMAed both cpu and board. Newegg didn't get back with me about what the defect might be.

So, sensors-configure is not necessary? I would really like to get lm-sensors working in Linux.
Hi vext,

I was wrong with the 3,2V the probing used random values so the applied value could have been anything up to 3.2V.
Jean from lm-sensors made a few patches in the last days so the next version 3.0.2 will run just fine on the Sapphire/DFI boards.
Everything lm-sensors dtects is the smbus controller (i2c-piix4) and the sensor-chip (it87). So if you add those modules manual you don't need to run sensors-detect.
