Which one do i trust with the right temp, both are giving 2 different temperature readings. I wouldn't be to bothered but when there's 10 degrees difference between them you just wonder what is going on.

The card i have is a Gigabyte GF 7600GT Turbo SLI 256MB Silent Pipe II
1st one is with EVEREST Ultimate Edition

2nd one is with the Nvidia Display console

for some reason i seem to get higher temps with the 84.56 driver than i did with the 83.21, but things seem to run a lot smoother with the 84.56 driver so i've left that one on. I just think it's Everest giving me a wrong temp cos it's been stuck on 57 for hrs now.
 
It software, neither will be acurate and most temperatures are a waste of time, I have had a 200deg AMD x2 before, and it was perfectly stable. :o

If it is stable, don't worry about it.

But as a note, I would always trust an official manufacturer driver or utility over a third party released one.
