Temperature discrepancy MSI 785GM-E65

Hi Everyone. I would like to see if someone can help me with this issue. In my new system when reading temperatures the temp from the motherboard reading is always around 15C degrees higher than the reading that I get from the AMD cores. For instance when using AMD Overdrive to run the stability test, I go to check the temperatures and TMPIN0 (CPU Reading from the motherboard) gets to a maximum of 63C degrees (This is with AMD Stock Cooler) However the core temperatures reaches a maximum of 51C degrees (Both are still under specifications) But I wonder which reading is more accurate. Has anyone experienced this discrepancy between these 2 parameters? Thanks again in advance!

I want to let everyone know that this issue was actually corrected by a BIOS update, so basically now both readings are almost the same. Thanks for all the help...

The BIOS measures the temp at the socket while the cooler one is measured at the sensor on the CPU. Same happens for me and all my AMD CPUs, ~10 degree C difference.
