temperature sensor and AMD Duron

Hi!

I'm using a Duron 850MHz in a GA-7ZX with VIA KT133 chipset.
On normal days BIOS reports 35 degrees celcius while software like MBM
(based on via686a) reports around 43 degrees.

I'd like to upgrade to a 1.3GHz Duron but don't know if the temp will
keep under the 90 degrees celsius die temperature specified by AMD.

Since Durons don't have an on die diode the 35/43 degrees surely aren't
the real temperature. So my question is, what do I have to add to the
sensor value to get the real die temperature on this board?

Bye,
Christian
