Thats a big variation temps. I would check the CPU cooler is seated correctly and check to see if you have even spread on the paste.

A quick Google suggest its a problem with the Nuvoton sensor giving high readings, but would also follow advice above to rule things out.

Yeah I would suspect
Faulty readings
The difference is just too great
10c or so between cores I have seen plenty of
That's just too extreme a difference
To be right

(If they were cores) You'd need the worst cooler mount ever where it is hanging off by one screw

I hope this is sensor problem.

Me too lol (sometimes I actually am right :cry:
