Is it possible to monitor the CPU temperature inside the VM?

In my scenario, I have a windows 10 VM with a corsair H100i and want to be able to monitor the temperature inside the VM to adjust the fan speed as the temp rises. I've been able to pass through the USB interface that controls the fans but I am missing the ability to monitor temperature inside the VM. I've installed lm-sensors but don't know a way to pass these readings through.
 
i do not believe you can passthrough any of the motherboard/cpu integrated sensors
but you could write a script that connects to your host via ssh/etc. and gets the sensor information that way (i am not sure about windows scripting and ssh, but you could setup a simple http server which provides those infos)
 
I figured as much with the pass through. I've resorted to using Netdata to display all of my sensor information, hopefully that will stay accurate.

Just speaking from my experience ..... I have netdata installed on each node of my 4 node cluster and so far I have not noticed any issues with proxmox. (running for about 1 year)

I too have had netdata installed on many nodes with proxmox and have not had any issues so far.
