Hello, I'm running both overdrive and hwmonitor and was wondering which one is accurate?

I'm running a AMD X4 860k, MSI A78M-E35 V2 motherboard, and Asus Radeon R9 270; nothing is overclocked and these pictures are at idle.

AMD Overdrive is the most accurate, and about the only thing I'd really trust. 61 degrees of margin is good:) These chips use algorithms rather than thermistors or thermocouples to measure temperature, so the software matters.
