SabreWolfy,

They will almost always be different: (I believe) one is what is reported by sensors built-in to the motherboard, the other is what's reported by on-chip sensors built into the CPU.

(My situation is reversed, the coretemps report lower than the mobo's CPU temp. I'm making an educated guess that I have a better CPU fan than you, or you have better ventilation *underneath* the motherboard than I.)

Dustin, Thank you for updating this!
