FPS Measurement Disparity

When SU5 was released instead of an FPS increase I experienced a decrease. I was using the shift-Z program that gives an output similar to the FSX shift-Z display. The FPS dropped from a max of 50 before SU5 to a max of 40 after SU5, with the FPS in MSFS set to 60.

I then loaded the MSI Afterburner program and at similar conditions the FPS(set at 60) registered between 58-60, while the shift-Z program recording simultaneously registered 35-40 FPS. Which to believe?
FPS set at 20 and at 30, shift-Z and MSI gave identical max readings of 20 and 30.

As an aside measurements were made of the temperatures.

I personally use the GeForce Experience overlay for my frames. I tried the Shift Z addon, but I don't like it when it advertises itself with every view cycle. Unlike the original built-in feature, there's no way to know where it's getting its frame data.
