Hi guys, was just wondering if these seem normal idle temps for my 2600k? Its at 4.8 on a corsair h50 and im worried as in the BIOS they apparently idle at 38 degrees (according to ASUS bios temps thing) and I dont understand the 15 degree difference? Voltage is at 1.3 I think.

Look fine. Temps are always higher in a bios compared with idling in Windows ( always have been for me anyway).

I am not sure for the reason for it but presumably the BIOS uses the CPU at a certain amount ( I.E in your bios your cpu is not idling)
