Guys,
First time poster, so be gentle
I have an AMD 6400+ black edition CPU. I used to have it water cooled but got sick of the maintainence it required so have just installed a Zalman CNPS9700-NT nVidia Tritium CPU Cooler to it. Having checked the temperatures with Core Temp, Speed fan and Easytune (for my gigabyte motherboard) I'm getting the following when running idle:
Should I be concerned at all? I presume the Core #0 temp is fine, but what about core #1? And why is core #1 hotter than #0? I would presume that most things would be running from core #0 or is that not the case?
If I start to run some games, I get the following sort of temperatures:
Again, should I be concerned? What puzzles me is that according to Core Temp, it is #0 that is taking all the load yet the temperature on it barely rises however, core #1 which is taking very little load, seems to increase (I didn't leave the program running in the screenshot long enough, but the temperature does go up to about 53C).
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Gareth
