Real temp or core temp ?

Okay, this just doesn't make sense atm im running a B3 q6600 @3.10ghz and a little bit higher than stock volts being cooled by a apogee gt block and im getting around 50c on all of the cores on Coretemp and yet Realtemp report temps of around 40c at idle.

Thats even after multiple remounts/ different layouts so should i still trust coretemp readings even if Realtemp temps seem more likely to be correct considering its under water ?

There is usually a 10c difference between Real Temp and Core Temp. They use a different T-Junction setting, with Real Temps being roughly 10c less than Core Temps.

50c sounds a little high, but then it is a B3 running with a Apogee GT. The B3's tend to run hot, and the GT isn't really designed for quads. They're not really a great combination tbh.

Fair deal, what cpu block do you recommend?,will it fit a Gigabyte p35_DQ6 mobo nice and snug ?
Is it worth ditching my b3 for a GO is it worth the trouble just for less temps ?
 
Are my current B3 q6600 temps something to worry about will it shorten the life span of it that much by idling around 50c for 10 hours a day on average ?
