Temperature disparity between Aida64, HWinfo and AMD Ryzen Master

[Tech Reprise]

After I installed my new CPU I was monitoring my temperature in these softwares and I am seeing that the temperature in Aida64 for CPU is always higher than ~5C in idle. On load (Benchmark/Stress) they are within 0.5C of each other. Is there any setting in AIDA64 that can correct this behaviour as I use that for my stress test and temperature monitoring on desktop for max time?

Afaik AMD Adrenalin uses the same monitoring suite as Ryzen master so that can be taken as the Control.

Ryzen Master only shows average CCD temp, while the others show an estimated "hotspot" temp called TCtl/TDie, which is always higher

HWInfo shows both, and you can see that the second line "average" is same than Ryzen master's temp

So which temperature should we tell people when they ask what my CPU temperature is?

Usually the higher one

So Aida64 it is for idle, as on load all show similar temps.
