Never use another software not specifically designed to read
your particular motherboard's temps, unless it very clearly
has a setting, known to work properly, specifying that same
board.
The right place to check the temp is the bios
health/hardware monitor page. On that page the temp will be
a few degrees warmer than sitting at idle while running an
ACPI enabled OS, and a few degrees cooler than running at
full load.
