E6850 speedfan temps correct?

[Aono]

In speedfan 4.32 it reports these values for my E6850:

idle:
Temp 1: 38c
Temp 2: 21c
Core 0: 17c
Core 1: 15c

Orthos after 20mins:
Temp 1: 38c
Temp 2: 41c
Core 0: 37c
Core 1: 34c

Now I'm confused, is temp2 TJ or tcase?? What is temp1 - ambient case? Are the cores correct?

Overall are these temps good or bad for a stock C2D with air cooling (scythe katana 2)?

Thanks for any help.

you need to +15 on that to make it correct.

15 on each core? Or temp2 as well? Why 15?

it has to do with the tjunct...

think of it this way... does it make sense for your chips to be idling at 17C's?

i highly doubt your chip would be idling at a temperature below your ambient... unless you're up north where it's still cold and you have 10-12C ambient

ok I think I have it right now. I have pushed the FSB up to 378x9 - 3.4Ghz. Temps are now (with +15 on the cores):

Idle:
Temp1: 39c
Temp2: 24c
Core0: 35c
Core1: 33c

Orthos after 5mins:
Temp1: 39c
Temp2: 43c
Core0: 54c
Core1: 51c

What do you think? I'm not sure what voltage the CPU is at. In the BIOS I set it at 1.3, but both CPU-Z and speedfan say it's 1.23.
