At idle, which is what the OP is concerned about, core 0 is far warmer than any other.
It's not, at least not for me. Idle, temps are the same for all cores (around 30). Only under (heavy) load do I see a difference of around 10-15 degrees between core 0 and the others. So I ask again, is the igp being used?
Okay, over and out. Everyone can stop replying to this thread now.
If you don't mind, after the Prime screenshot I think your temps are high indeed for a stock clocked chip with Hyper 212. I have a better cooler, but under Linx (which causes significantly higher temps than Prime) I stay under 60 degrees. I assume the fan on your cooler is running at 100% during Prime?
I do know you need to apply thermal paste differently for these direct heatpipe contact coolers. Better to apply it to the cooler itself, filling the gaps between heatpipes as well.
