    Default One core hotter than the rest

    Is this normal? I've re-seated the fan (I'm using the stock fan) and applied new thermalpaste, but it doesn't seem to change anything. I've already ordered a Corsair Hydro H80i, so a better cooler is on the way. I just want to know if it's normal that one core is way hotter than the rest. It'd be nice to see what settings you guys use for your i5-3570k.

    At lower temperatures their accuracy are a bit piss poor, different programs will show you different readings imo. Use prime 95 and stress it to 100% load and you will see that the temperatures are equally same in all of them.
    Those temps look fine.

    yeah, I guess it's not really a problem. I'll test prime95 to see what happens.
