Yes, that's it.  Some other notes:

1) Use the 'ignore' statement in sensors.conf to hide temp2.

2) In theory, the BIOS should set the correct sensor type.  You shouldn't need
to change it.

3) You can run a CPU intensive process and watch for the other two temps to
rise.  The one that rises faster is probably the CPU.
