Hello.

Im talking about the first cpu temp.
Its not supposed to be lower than the cores temp?

Im a little confused.
Thanks.

Well that is an auxiliary temp.
But that's just a false reading.
It's a placeholder for any extra sensors. Since you don't have one it's a false reading

I dont know if i understand it.
So core temp is the real temp of the cores in the cpu, and cpu temp is like a auxiliar sensor that the mobo provides and is near the cpu or socket right?
So cores is being cooled by the cpu cooler but the heat in the socket is being trapped inside the case, right?

Yea. It's being conducted through the CPU though.
It's not bad for it. Socket can stand as much heat as your CPU does, usually a few degrees more.
Your temps don't look bad though.
CPU or temp 3 for CPU socket, package is the hottest core. Depends on how each board reads.
