E6300 Dual Core noob-Cpu temp's

[t3h0n3]

Hi there well i assembled a E6300 machine today (my 1st dual core machine) well everythings going stable as of now ,but i am worried about the cpu temps .Iam posting a screenshot of everest which shows the individual cores at around 55C each and the cpu temp at 48C @ stock HSF just wanted to confirm if these are the normal temps or should i be worried.(my room is a non ac room).please do reply.

You CPU temp is really high, assuming it was measured at idle. The core temps are also high, but not as alarming as the CPU temp. It appears that you have no case fans, at least none that are being monitored. Make sure your case has good airflow - at least one intake fan at the front of the case, and one exhaust at the back. YOu may also wish to disable QFAN in the BIOS. That will permit your CPU fan to run at 100% rpm. Lastly, your CPU heatsink may not be making good contact with the CPU heatspreader. Perhaps, you should re-install the heatsink, making sure that it's mated well, and properly secured to the mobo.

In a room that's not too hot (~21C), and a case with good airflow, you E6300 should be idling in the 30s, with core temps ~10C hotter.

thanks theteamaqua and phile for repying
ok well i tried reseating the HSF today and disabled Qfan now here are the temps Everest shows
all these are idle temps the ones i posted before also are idle temps

came 10c straight down ,under load i.e when i use super pi the temps go around 50.
considering Mumbai's weather is hot (25-30c) hope these are the usual temps

Looking much better. Those temps are fine.

Lavalys discontinued Everest Home edition. You'll either have to download an old version or pay for a new version of Professional or whatever the paid version is.

Also, to answer your question.....I think it's hard to tell because between the two, I've seen fluctuations as far as 6-10 +/- degress.

ok well i finally went up to a professional pc assembler
he went through the whole system again rather reassembled the machine
he did say that the heatsink was not properly placed onto the cpu
the temps still remain the same now (the temps i posted the 2nd time) so iam considering these as regular temps now
