Two temps claiming to be CPU, which one do I trust?

Ok guys, check this... I have two sensors reporting as my CPU temp, one is the CPU sensor and the other is the Mobo's CPU sensor and they are both telling me very different readings...
Which one do I trust for this mobo?
One max is 61c while the other's 50c at 100% load.
I have a brand new high powered pump so I shouldn't be seeing 60c or anywhere near it!:

What ever one is hottest. but the board sensor is probably picking up residual heat from other factors. Also uninstall the suite that came with the board
if your going to use that monitoring software. They don't play well with each other and I think can send bad info back to the board

Yeah I got rid of probe and monitor programs... I need the fanx and the digi suite though.
