Default TPMS vs. tire guage

I was just curious, whats more accurate the TPMS or your average tire pressure gauge? I have a 2010 Camaro SS which gives the actual numbers at each corner. The gauge I have seems to read about 4-5psi lower than what the TPMS states. Being that the 370z doesn't give a reading and my 280z and 300zx are too old to even have TPMS I'm just wondering which I should go off? I recently filled the tires on my 370z to the gauges measured 35psi but if it's actually off by 4-5psi then that possibly means I filled my tires to 39-40psi which would be too much. I know most just pick a gauge and stick with it but when you have a car that gives the reading do you go by the gauge or the car? Thanks for the help
