Right now my temps are reading 17C with stock cooler at idol. Room temp is 20C

Is this a good temp?

I'm using CoreTemp

Load temp was 27C, btw

I think CoreTemp is wrong!

Download HWmonitor and use it to check. I guarantee you that CoreTemp is reading wrong because it is physically impossible for your heatsink to be cooler than ambient temperature so use another program to monitor your temps instead.

are you an eskimo? 17C is about 63F which is damn cold for room temp. Your temp sensors were likely not calibrated properly. Also the chances of your CPU idling with a 0C temp delta are slim without it being super energy efficient and probably a high end water cooling setup.

Personally I find 63F a comfortable room temp, it's what I spent the last few years living in when I was in the basement.
