One of my Intel Core 2 Quad processor cores has a temperature consistently lower than the other 3 cores, WHY? Hello. I have a question. I need to know the reason why one of my cores (Core 2) is running about 3-4 degrees below the temperatures of the other 3 cores on my Intel Core 2 Quad processor. Restarting and rebooting seems not to help, it is always the same core with the lower temperature. Is there something wrong with that particular core or something overly defective with the processor itself??? It rarely ever fluctuates and stays at 33 degrees Celsius. The other core temperatures are around 36-37 degrees at rest/idle and do frequently go up when an action is performed on the computer. Please let me know what is going on with this consistent core 2 temperature and please provide me with a reason why this is happening. Is it something that is beginning to go with this processor? Is there anything that can be done about it to get all four (4) core temperatures in balance. Thank you!

Thats quite technical but i would like to know the answer to it. I have no clue about it. But i would like to also ask that is this processor working fine as this is a bit latest. Regards, Merry J Refilling Inkjet Cartridges

I can't see a reason to worry about it no matter what the cause. You could look at resource monitor to see it's load. But again not worth the time. Playing to the angels Les Paul (1915-2009)
