this link shows cpu temp from core temp and hwmonitor..... hwmonitor gives me a outrageous number while core temp gives me a reasonable number..... my bios doesnt tell my cpu temperature.
what is right???

Probably CoreTemp. HWmonitor has a bad history with reading the wrong sensor with APUs.yeah this has made me REALLY paranoid, i even went as far as almost buying a new cpu cooler and a new case.....
but coretemp gives me really low numbers when i boot my computer up around 5-20C so i dont know what is right!!!!!

That is because it is reading the CPU Core temperatures, as opposed to the CPU Socket temperatures.
CPU Core temperatures are fed through a type of weighted equation so that they are more accurate when at load, but when idling they display funky, often below-ambient temperatures.
This is as opposed to the CPU Socket temperatures, which are great for idle temperatures, but are often 5-15C higher when at load.
Just be happy that CoreTemp actually worked for you. There are some people who have tried upwards of five programs before being able to deduce which one is the correct one. For me, Coretemp and AMD Overdrive worked, while Speedfan and HWMonitor failed. For others, Coretemp and AMD Overdrive just simply display 0, no matter what the load. Scary, eh?

Best solution
That's because HWMonitor can just bork with APUs; same with how AMD Overdrive and CoreTemp can just display 0 with their readings, no matter the load.
You have discovered your Core Temperature readings, which is pretty much the only reading you need to worry yourself with, because knowing your load temperatures and if you are overheating is far more important than knowing your temperatures while at idle.
