e6600 temp differential

[IGBT]

..wondering what e6600 users are seeing in temp diff. between cores at idle with TAT??

I have always noticed a ~2C temp difference with both TAT and Coretemp usually more noticable at idle with my E6600 also. I always attributed this to differences in the temp calibration.

..is it possible XP sets one of the cores with a higher duty rate then the other thus the higher temp??

ugh your Core #0 should have a higher temp since that is the priority that the load goes on. that causes the temps to difference in 1-3 max. it shouldn't go over 5. if it does. you got a problem buddy. =] hope this helps.
