i use speedfan, tat, and coretemp

Speedfan says i idel at 39C and tat and coretemp say 33C

i know tat reads directly from the mobo and speedfan reads from somthing else or somthin like that. But which temps r more important? The temps that the mobo r saying or the temps that speedfan is saying?
 
i have 4.31 dled 4.32
the core 0 and 1 temps r just like coretemp

so i should ignore cpu and watch core 0 and core 1?
 
Head to that link I recommended and you will see that the CPU reading in SpeedFan is at times meaningless. Core 0 and Core 1 report the same as CoreTemp because both are following the Intel guidelines and are 100% accurate.

Many other programs reading various sensors are not.

If you don't have time to read through a bunch of stuff then here are the two posts that have convinced me:
