what are you using to do the monitoring? It is quite possible the cpu and mobo temps are just being swapped. On my mobo, winbond 1 is the mobo and winbond 2 is the cpu and winbond 3 is the chip set. So, most monitors seems to want the make winbond1 the cpu temp even tho it isn't, at least in my case...

YMMV

Your readings are out of whack. There is no way you have that CPU at 16C. Turn that computer on. How is your mobo hotter than your CPU?
