Hi guys, i would like to know whether my cpu is overheating under overclock.

The processor is e7200 and is running at 3.6ghz at 1.32v (after vdroop)
and is peaking at around 63c load while another core is at 70c load.

the heatsink in use is a sunbeam core contact freezer with tx2 paste. fan is at about 1650 rpm.

ambient temperature is at about 29c, just a fan in the room, no air conditioning.

why is there a difference in the 2 core temperature? is the temperature too high
for this processor?

The temp is normal~~
Its that hot for Intel chips

oh why the difference in 2 core temperatures? is it because of hardware or software in the temperature diodes?

seem to be running fine even at 62c. should i reseat the heatsink? or just let it be?

kinda normal

some other proc may have up to 10'c difference between the cores

hmm. then i should just let it be. quite hard to reseat the heatsink lol. if can improve 10c den can reseat lah.

You won't really get noticeable improvement that way so don't bother
