CPU temps vs Cores Temps

Ok, below in my sig are the specs. The CPU is at 1.32v verified and Im wondering why I am seeing 32*c CPU temps, but 48*c/50*c on the cores. I know that one is higher due to the uneven load at idle on the CPU, but Im wondering why there is 15-20*c difference in core temps and cpu temp. With watercooling, the load temps still only rise about 5-6*c leaving loads at 52*c and 55*c

I know that these temps are not horrible, but why are there such variations between the cpu and cores? Temps were monitors using PC Wizard, Core Temp, and Speedfan, all 3 show identical readings. I have not used TAT since I cannot get it to load properly.
 
On my P5B Deluxe I've seen the CPU temp reported in the bios and in SpeedFan at 12C which is beyond impossible for air cooled. Ignore that data.

The SpeedFan 4.32 data for core temps will be accurate for your processor so use it.
