I am wondering what standard is if any when taking temperature readings. I ask this because applications SpeedFan show individual core temperatures and the CPU temperature. Not sure exactly why the the two core temps are diff from the "cpu" temp. I also ask this to clarify which number to use when reporting your temperatures as sometimes the discrepancy can be somewhat large.

Not to mention Speedfan shows different temps than TAT on my C2D.

Example would be right now SpeedFan shows both cores at about 37C but shows "CPU" as 44C. Tat on the other hand shows the cores at 40C and 39C atm. Im guessing TAT is more accurate?
