ive been trying to overclock my Ryzen 5 1600, and ive been trying to test the temperature accurately, but HWMonitor gives me different values than aida64. Does anyone know which one is more accurate or if there is a better solution

Can you give us the different temperatures? 

They might be measuring different things. One might also be correcting for AMD's inaccurate reports.

For me AIDA64 is accurate but you can try Real Temp to it's good app.

HWMonitor isn't accurate from what I see. Use HWinfo, Aida64 also OK

Consider this:

Your pc has various temperature probes in various notable locations/parts. The software doesn’t actually “measure” anything, it just relays the data from the probes. If it only lists one unspecified reading, that could be any one or combination of readings, but the “accuracy” doesn’t change. The measurements can only be as precise or accurate as the hardware is.
