I.e. everything's perfect except for the voltage limits. Your
configuration file (well, our default configuration file) does only set
them for the CPU core, but with incorrect values (for you at least). I
agree we should add sensible defaults for this chip in the default
config file. Try this:

set in0_min  1.70 * 0.95
set in0_max  1.70 * 1.05
set in1_min  2.5  * 0.95
set in1_max  2.5  * 1.05
set in2_min  3.3  * 0.95
set in2_max  3.3  * 1.05
set in3_min  5    * 0.9
set in3_max  5    * 1.1
set in4_min 12    * 0.9
set in4_max 12    * 1.1

instead of the current "set in0_{min,max}" lines in the via686a section.

Then "sensors -s" should write the correct limits, and two subsequent
"sensors" should wipe the alarms out.
