hi all today i got a q9400 and i noticed that the temps are a little bit unbalanced
on idle i got and on full load with prime95 after 2h
av min max av min max
core0 21 20 39 core0 47 20 50
core1 8 8 23 core1 31 8 36
core2 24 24 39 core2 36 24 39
core3 24 24 39 core3 39 24 43

the core 1 is not a little too cold lol?

 
Try using more than one temp monitoring program, some give false readings. Also try something stressful other than a stress test lol games etc. Obviously temps seem like one is working more than the other and one not enough, but as long as its stable and not reaching overheating temps i wouldnt see a problem.

Maybe ur heatsink isnt contacting good enough where core 0 is loacated or lack of thermal paste or something
