T Junction Temp Question

[R64]

Core Temp shows my Tjunction at 85C, with core 0,1 at 41C. Is this normal to have such high temps at Tjunction?

 

[yiranhu]

yes. Do you have a dell?

No, E6600/S3/Stock HSF, just finished building it today. Running everything stock for now as this is my first build.

Junction Temperature Junction temperature, denoted TJ, is the average temperature of the die within the package. The TJ number you see in Core Temp is not a temp reading it is the max reccomended by Intel for your processor and will vary depending on what you have. I have seen 85c and 100c in different applications.
