Intel E5400 @ 2.7GHz Temperature

[darkan]

Hello,

I have an Asus P5Q-Digital Home Deluxe motherboard with an Intel Core Duo E5400 CPU @ 2.7GHz. The thing is that Everest Ultimate, which is monitoring various hardware temperatures, is reporting CPU Temp at 20C when PC is idle. Is that even possible?

Are you in a really cold room? Try out coretemp or Realtemp and see what they say.

As I said, room temperature is about 28C (not what you'd call cold).

Asus Probe and Speedfan both report the same temperature 20C for CPU.
Here are the Realtemp screen:

So I guess it has to do with the usual "CPU vs Core temp" issue then?
