Q6700 Core temps

[kevinali]

I currently have a Q6700 with a Thermalright Ultra Extreme 120, with a vcore set to 1.256v at 333 x 10 (3.33 Ghz)

I noticed that there is a difference between the core temperatures

Core 0 and Core 1 are (on average) 2-3 C hotter then Core 2 and Core 3

Ex. just idle the C0 and C1 temps are 34-35 and C2 and C3 temps are 32-33

Is this common? I have reseated the thermalright twice and added Artic Silver 5 as the paste (according to the instructions on thier website)

I use everest ultimate 4.5 to measure core temps

Yes, it's common. Don't worry about it. Save the paste, it's doing the job fine.
