Could be a couple of things. First off, your temp reading program may be reading the mobo temp wrong. Second, it could be that the temp sensor is at the northbridge on the motherboard. I don't know how many northbridge heatsinks I've seen that had no thermal compound on them, and, if you looked closely, you could see a tiny gap between the chip and the heatsink. That little air gap is worse than no heatsink at all. Check that out and slap a little thermal goop on the northbridge heatsink and see if the problem doesn't clear up.
The CPU temps look fine, BTW.
