Shame he shot himself
I use coretemp and realtemp, both give similar readings.

I think it's a great monitoring tool.
No errors in the temperature or voltage measurements for me

I use HWM BlackBox 1.1.6 to monitor everything ! it a good tool too.
i use HWmonitor, core temp, speedfan, real temp, everest and looked in teh asus one that came with the board.
all but the asus ones give one of two readings, half are saying 33-37 between the cores, and the other half go with 38-42. Asus one says my temps are around 15-20, which is lower than the 7 temp sensors i have placed around my case, on the rads, back of cpu area on the mobo, between graphics cards, ambient etc.
So, considering the asus ones gives cpu temps lower than the ambient temp then i first turn on my cpu, im pretty sure its epic fail. The others are all just depending on which calibration they are using. I go with the higher of the two readings, so that way i am playing it safe.
Once i have used all of the programs and worked out which is the most likely/safest one to be reading, i go with that. That happens to be everest in my case, plus it gives temps for all sensors on my mobo/ram/gpus/hdd's etc.
