920 stock temp???

Last response: in CPUs
Share

I used core i7 920 D0 + corsair h50 liquid cooler

I used e-leet and real temp to check over the temperature.

At stock speed, the temperatures seem high at idle = 39-41+-
however in e-leet, the CPU temperatures is idle 26-29, with the core 1-core4 around 40-43 idle



is that normal?
I always thought i7 920 will be cooler like 20s-30s

Thx for the replies!

It is normal for there to be a slight difference in temperatures over the 4 cores. However this should be only 1-2 degrees at the most while idling. Obviously under load some software will only utilise 1 or 2 cores...

Core Temp / Real Temp or even your own motherboard software will give you different readings - some use the sensors on the chip some use sensors on the mobo under the CPU socket.

Your temps are will within normal operating range so I wouldnt worry.

These temps are normal as the i7-9xx runs really hot.

In addition, different software show different core temps due to their TJ Max being set to different values.

The TJ Max of EVGA app is 2 degrees higher than the core temp according to the picture attached.
