low core temps asrock conroe motherboard

Description

I have an Asrock conroe 1333 DVI motherboard. lm-sensors appears to detect OK but I believe the core temps are a little low. I have a E2160 CPU in there and at idle it shows ~22. I have a similar PC on windows which idles at around 38.

If I use windows on my linux PC speedfan also reports the same low value as lm-sensors (~22 degs) but HWMonitor from cpuid.com shows at around 38 i.e. the same as the other box. The other box shows the higher figure in speedfan and HWmonitor, but I am unable to try linux.

From looking at the other figures I believe that HWmonitor is reporting correctly and lm-sensors is reading too low, though obviously I cannot prove it one way or the other.

Is there any sort of correlation I can do do get the correct temp. Obviously the authors of HWmonitor are doing something slightly different to the speedfan and lm-sensors authors, and I will email them to see if I get a response.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks My output is as follows:
