It looks like a faulty/ disconnected sensor because the min and max readings are the same...

looks like a faulty sensor, as Techguy said.

cpu temps are ok... are you using a gpu?

122c is not possible for sure. Sensor is faulty. Get it checked out.

forget about it (my advice)

else,
1. check components in another PC
2. replace everything in an attempt to pin down the fault
3. weep after you find out a bad connector was causing it
4. never buy assembled computers due to trauma

forget about it.. nothing to worry... many time motherboard manufacturers do not connect all the sensors that is why it shows up as a faulty sensor.. dont worry..

do me a favor download this "HWmonitor".install or open, run in background same as you did with hwinfo and put your system under stress by playing games or anything.take a screenshot and report back.

it's just an unassigned AUX temp reading ;-) which should be ignored - if your cpu, gpu, hdd and mobo temps are Ok and they are working fine don't think about this. I've seen this as high as 160C+.
