Just upgraded to MSI P67A-G45 i5 2500k 8GB Ram & Noctua NH-C14 Cooler, In the bios I am getting temps of around 43C where as Core Temp & Realtemp both show around 33C idle, :confused: Currently clocked at 4Ghz.

Also my mouse is inverted in the bios, which is strange.
 
The CPU works harder in the BIOS than it does idling in the OS - so that will account for the differeing in temps. Mine reads a good 15 degrees warmer in the BIOS too compared to Core temp.

As for the inverted mouse there's possibly a setting within the BIOS (i'll look later on mine) - if not it could just be an anomoly. But if it doesn't seem to effect the OS environment i wouldn't worry about it.
