So I have a mini-itx system (Sugo SG05) I built using an Asus M4A88T-I Deluxe. Asus PC Probe reports CPU temperatures of 38C idle, 44C load. However, Core Temp and AMD Overdrive report the CPU Core temperatures to be 66-68C idle, and 72-74C load. Heatsink is a Scythe Big Shuriken (the 120mm low profile).
I've also measured the heatsink temperature using an infared read, but it's pretty crowded in the case and can't get a really good shot (the reading of the heatsink I got was 33C at idle). I took everything out and reseated the heatsink a couple times just to check the thermal paste (OCZ Freeze) spread.
I think the PC Probe readings seem to be more reasonable than the Core Temp readings, but I wanted to see what other people think.
