Q6600 temperature issue

[Peter Tsang]

Hello folks,

Hope this message finds you all well. Haven't been up here for a while. It's summer time now and the air-conditioner doesn't work good enough lately. So I fired up CPUID Hardware Monitor Pro just to keep an eye on the temperature of the CPU when Civilization 4's running. Below is the screen capture of the monitor.

My questions is there are 2 places where they say about the CPU's temperature. The green-squared tells me the "CPUTIN" whereas the red-squared tells me the core's temperature which are significantly higher than the previous. Now when I fired up ASUS AI Suite it also told me the same temperature as that of the CPUINT. Which one should I take? Now where do I stand?

Thanks in advance!
Peter

Them temps look fine to me. None of your Cores went over 50°C under load so nothing to worry about

It's a comfort to know. But I should have asked more precisely. What this utility refers CPUINT to? What is CPUINT temperature?

Not 100% sure, but I think its the temperature of the CPU case, the IHS - rather than the cores themselves.

It's the same as in the BIOS. Just 27oC, cool!
