There is no useful information in your post. It sounds like you're stating a fact. Why are you so positively sure that Core Temp is reporting inaccurate temperatures?
You could've written a little description of your system, cooling and what other means to measure temperatures you're comparing with.

Mr. Coolest,
Thanks for your reply.
I gave you MoBo and chip info.
The cooling is stock Intel fan unit.
OS is Win7, 64 bit.
4GB mem, no video card.

In a cool garage, about 56 o F., here are system & CPU temps...
From BIOS: System - 29 C / CPU 21 C
From SiSoftware Sandra Lite: Board - 27 C / CPUs - 14-25 C
From CoreTemp: 90-98 C

The temps from CoreTemp are generally the same from two builds with same MoBo and chip.

Thanks,
Don Bell
