@ThrashZone
I prefer MSI AB,and also use Speccy,both of them report the same temp (or just 2 degree different).

So i ran GTAV for 30min and the max temp was 88c,however opened the case and touched the heatsink,it was almost cold,the GPU was a bit hotter than the CPU(by touching both heatsinks for the GPU and the CPU stock fan's heatsink when the game was running),so it might be the sensor ? but how can i know for sure,and where is the sensor located at ?

The sensor in built in the CPU. There is no way to replace it.
Sometimes the software that reads the sensor isn't correct. On BIOS you get a more accurate measure.
