Soooo... how do I get accurate temps?

Q6600 G0, no overclocking as of now
Gigabyte P35 DS3R rev. 2.1
Watercooling the CPU and Northbridge, all fans on low, 2x120mm radiator

On load, CoreTemp reports an average of 26-27C for each of the cores. Speedfan reports an average of 10C for each.

Speedfan 4.33 is obviously wrong.
CoreTemp 0.96.1 also seems really low to me. Realistically, I'm used to seeing at LEAST 36C on load with my watercooling setup, which I've had for years.

Speedfan reports the Northbridge as being 36C. This seems more normal.

Ambient temperature is a cool 15.5C.

CoreTemp 0.96 probably has more accurate temperatures. I'm not sure why they went back to the old calibration in version 0.96.1.

So what's your water reservoir temp?
