I FINALLY got all my parts (See Signature) and I've built my new i5 system (at least to the point of getting it test worthy). I was about to start OCCT to burn it in (no overclock yet), but before I did, I noticed this info from CoreTemp:
Notice how Core2 is 7° C cooler than the closest other core? Is that something I should be worried about? Like maybe an uneven coating of thermal paste?
This is the first multi-core CPU system that I've built, so I want to make sure that I don't toast it the first night.
