I suppose then that immediately after shutdown and entering bios (let's say after 1 minute after launching sensosrs) temp. in BIOS will be a little higher then befoure running linux. And it is not. Besides I don't know which sensor Temp2 indicates (why it does not change) - I'm pretty sure it is not CPU sensor. How can I check/change this? > But it also may be wrong, as you suppose.
