Hi guys, quick question. 
I've recently purchased a 3770K and am getting these idle temps on a Corsair H80:
27
29
25
32
I've read that core 3 normally runs cooler than the other cores but for some reason core 3 for me is always warmer. This happened with a 2600K as well. I'm wondering if this is normal or if I didn't apply the thermal paste evenly or something.
Edit: I'm running stock clocks and voltage. I'm also using the latest Core Temp to monitor temps.

The temp difference between cores is normal since previous gens.
core temp variation is normal; also, sensors vary - they are not bad but are tiny little things, accurate only when close to the shutoff temp, and we must expect variation.
So, intrinsic variation + sensor variation = variation reported temps.
Also different cores work at different rates, therefore some will normally run a little hotter than others. Coz say Core 1 is working a little harder than core 0, even at idle, that core will be a little bit hotter than Core 0. Just an example.
