AMD A10. CPU runs cold, GPU runs hot at idle.

When checking core temps via AMD Overdrive, it reads 50-60c at idle for the CPU, but only 2-6c for the GPU. Seems like a much larger temperature variation that I would expect.

Reminder, AMD Overdrive uses Thermal Margin, not absolute temp.

"Thermal Margin indicates how far the current operating temperature is below the
maximum operating temperature of the processor."-AMD

Edit: Just noticed CPU temps are in blue, while GPU temps are in black. Does that mean the GPU is overheating at idle?

no this means that the pc recognizes that its in there but is not installed correctly or simply is not compatible

but that is what my freind says that might be bullshit
