Bios temp is showing about 45c and realtemp is about 10c lower at idle. So, which one do I go with? Thanks.

 
What is your cooling solution, what is your ambient temperature?

Generally I would say RealTemp. Those guys have been meticulous about determining temperature based on Intel's spec. Several times motherboard manufacturer's have been caught implementing wrong.

I personally prefer running RealTemp in DeltaT mode.
 
I think the bios temp doesnt read the actual individaul cores like realtemp does. anyway idle temps shouldn't concern you anyway because they are extremely inaccurate. temps actually get more accurate as your approach the load temps of the processor
 
Ambient temp is 21c and case temp is about 30c. Using a h50 push/pull for cooling, temps usually max out at 70c with Linx or Prime95.
