It seems to vary from one mobo to another. On my old Dragon + it was 10c off on the CPU temp on my Epox 8RDA+ it was 5c off. I use a hardware temp probe now I dont think any software temp program is going to always be accurate they really only give a reference point.

I usually compare it to the temps in bios and adjust it to that.
