Tempretures, Core Temp and real temp

[gupott]

Hi there,

Just built a new machine and my overclock is now pretty stable, running a Q9300 at 455x7.5 with cpuz reporting my volts as 1.304 but I think this is higher in the bios, more like 1.4v. Anyway, I am doing a few things at the moment, playing football manager, converting vob files to divx and ripping some cd to itunes. I don't appear to be having any stability issues, but I am running coretemp and its reporting 71,69,65,63 on the cores and real temp is recording 60,63,56,55. So my first question is which do I believe? and secondly are these temps too high?

My case is closed and I have a couple of intake fans blowing over the hard drive and a noctua nh-u12p.

Cheers

Hi netby, I downloaded it and had a problem, its says invalid processor, terminating tool.

Any ideas?

I also heard that coretemp reports higher because of a higer tj Max.

I only have one fan on the noctua, is it worth sticking another on it, in a kind of push pull formation?

this doesnt work on my quad.

So which do people think is the more accurate, CoreTemp or RealTemp?
