Broken temperature sensor?

Hi, I finally got my 6300 and ds4 yesterday and have started overclocking it (and yes I did get the zalman 9500 to fit on it). Its up to 2.2 now and yet the cpu temp still shows as idling at 20-23 on the easytune software that comes with it. That cant be far off room temperature and doesnt seem at all right to me :confused: :confused: :confused: Load temps are generally not much higher from what I can gather.

Any advice?

edit: after a couple of minutes on prime the temp goes up to low 30s

I've tried speed fan but its difficult to tell which of the sensors is which on that. Bios seems to confirm what the Gigabyte software says, which is why I was wondering if its a broken sensor. I will have a try with Coretemp now thanks.
 
Ahh, thats much more like it. 35/36 on idle. Can't see why gigabyte couldnt make a proper piece of software for a board that was designed to carry conroes. At least they made a kick-ass board

Thanks again
