Try HWINFO, see if it is the same as the board's readings.

One, BIOS temps are not reliable for truly gauging idle temps. It's helpful to see if there is a serious problem with your cooling solution but without the OS being loaded, its not really helpful for judging real world temps.

 

Two, yeah.. HWInfo.
