So, in regards to overheating, overclocking, benchmarking, world records, and record keeping....which temperature do experts refer to when they speak of CPU temperature? Do they refer to the package core temperatures which is given in the program CoreTemp for example?... or do they refer to something else...like the CPUID "CPU" temp? (which is the higher of the two temps)
[AMD FX-8350]
Here are my system temps at idle...
CoreTEMP:
15°C (all 8 cores)
HW CPUID:
"CPU" Temperature: 34°C
AMD FX-8350 Temp: 15°C
So the question remains, what temperature should I really keep an eye on for overclocking, benchmarking and my overheating?
