I would go ahead and ask for motherboard make as well...PPL need to start realising we are not talking apples and apples when someone has an Asus mobo and someone has an Epox. Each temperature could be calculated slightly different, be read in different place or manner, or just be calibrated different...
In my p4 study awhile back I consistently found Asus mobos to offer the lowest temps regardless of similar or inferior cooling. The abit was the highest temps with the epox and MSI falling in the middle. Often the temp diffrences from bottom to top was 8-10c....
