Couple of CoreTemp questions

I'm running an E6750 on a P5KC with the stock cooler. CoreTemp reports that the standard temp for the cores are 36C for Core #0 and 40C for Core #1. Couple of questions:

Is this normal, for the two temperatures to differ by 4C?

If I were to upgrade the cooler to a different one, what difference in temp would I expect to see?

Cheers!
 
Yes its normal and yes you will see a temp drop with a decent aftermarket cooler - how much depends on the cooler.
 
if the temperatures are not the same then the cooler is not mounted straight, reseating usually helps this

Can anyone testify to this happening? It's at 37/42 at the moment, just seems weird to me to have two cores running at fairly different temps. 1 or 2 I can understand, but 5 seems odd. But maybe it's normal.

Cheers anyway!
