Abit temperature sensors

[bandana163]

Summer is coming and I'm wondering how hot my CPU really is.
I have an IS7, I know Abit mainboards show too high temperatures, but how much is the difference between the real temps and the measured ones?
My idle temp (with stock intel cooling) is 47C, but at 100% load it reaches 59-61C. I have no heat-related problems at all.

Does anyone know how inaccurate these sensors are?

The general consensus is that those boards report the temp about 8-10°C higher than the "average" board. Abit swears that it's a more accurate CPU core temp though. So do you believe Abit or the rest of the industry?
