What's up with my temps?

Hey guys,

recently procured a Phenom II x2. I am running it with a Arctic Freezer 7, and the temperatures are a bit weird.

As you can see, after 8 mins of Prime, my max temp is 86, but my current temp is 43. In the first few minutes of Prime, they both increase fairly equally, as if it alternates between 40/80/41/81/42/82/43/ 83, very rapidly or something. Is my CPU at 86 or 43? 43 seems too low for full load, but 86 seems too high! But then the cores are around 40, not around 80. Is it a sensor error?
 
Try a different program, like real temp or cpu temp. Sensor issue there because it actually says your core temps are no higher than 35c...
 
Id vote a sensor issue too id normally expect at stock with a stock cooler to be mid 50s load with that cooler id expect mid to low 40s
