lm-sensors configs for Asus Sabertooth 990FX and M5A97 R2.0

I had to replace a motherboard and CPU a few days ago (bought an Asus M5A97 R2.0), and wanted to get lm-sensors working properly on it. Got it working eventually, which was harder than it should have been because the lm-sensors site is MIA, seems to have been rm -rf -ed.

For anyone else with this motherboard, the config is included below.

This inspired me to fix the config for my Asus Sabertooth 990FX motherboard. Also included below.

To install, copy-paste to a file under /etc/sensors.d/ and run sensors -s to make sensors evaluate all of the set statemnents.
