I am not sure what temperature the above register represents, but it is
no current value on my Athlon64 with Cool'n'Quite.

$ cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
temperature:             40 C

Shows too 40°C :) While the real values are

CPU Temp:    +23°C  (low  =   +15°C, high =   +45°C)   sensor =
thermistor
M/B Temp:    +29°C  (low  =   +15°C, high =   +40°C)   sensor =
thermistor

The values are from lm_sensors which reads in

$ cat /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0290/temp1_input
23000
$ cat /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0290/temp2_input
29000

A tip for frequently observing such a register: make use of watch
command

watch -d -n2 cat /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0290/temp1_input

or: watch -d -n2 sensors
