every temp sensing program will report pretty much the same temps - as they all get their readings from the bios...and if the bios is wrong all the software temps will be wrong - so whatever software your mobo manufacturer provides to check temps will suffice - a hardware temp sensor is the only real way to accurately guage temps

but when i go in to BIOS, I always get a CPU temp of 40 degrees celcius while in PC Wizard reads 36 idle and 45 load.


Whats that all about?

Surely being in the BIOS shouldent be a strain on the CPU!!!

Are you trying to run Probe and MBM5 at the same time?
I find they will sometimes interfere with each other if you try to run them at the same time. They give me about the same results if run seperately.

Also, if your sensor is known to run a few degrees hot or cold, some apps will auto correct it. MBM 5 does this for some sensors and I am sure others do to. I myself use MBM5 or everest for temps.
