Diffrence cpu temp & cpu core temp?

[dwensch]

Hello,

When i'm playing games the temperature goes up in no time.

So i was checking in AIDA and i saw that cpu temp gives 59° but cpu core temp gives 56°

What is the correct value?

See screenshot:

Yes I looked at the screenshot. When in doubt, I go the safer route. In this case the higher temp. reading.

Okay, will do that.

I check with a third program and here the temp is 1 degree higher.. i's confusing

1 to 2 degrees is well within the margin of error for temp recording and display.
