I have seen the CPU Package temp spike up 69°C when gaming sometimes however. Is there supposed to be a significant disparity between these two temperatures?Well, that's indeed a larger difference than expected.5820k and nothing outside of the extraordinary... right now I'm just browsing using Chrome and I've got a varying CPU usage of 1%-4%. Did I do something wrong?Just ran a 10 min stability test on Aida64 with FPU off. The package temp is always higher than the 4 core temps, sometimes by over 12 degrees C. What is the package temp and what significance is … So do you measure the overall temp or the package? You must log in or register to reply here. I just recently updated to the latest BIOS but noticed this discrepancy in temperatures before that on the old BIOS as well. Ascend to... the PC Master Race.Press J to jump to the feed. So yes, it's really strange.Thanks for the help. The Intel Extreme Tuning Utility shows one "CPU Temperature" that seems to be the same as the CPU (PECI) in HWiNFO, and the Core temperatures (which match HWiNFO Core temperatures.) But just to be sure:Looks like Intel's stumped too.


Corsair CUE shows normal temps, just Link that's the problem.CPU package temps are around the pin and die, this is normal. The first thing I noticed was that with my old 2500K my CPU Package temperature and Core Max were almost always within a degree with each other. It is not always exactly 5C but within a degree of 5C, and I believe that is just due to the temperature readings being taken at slightly different intervals.Looks like tools like HWMonitor and Intel XTU read a different CPU Package temperature value. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. There may be more for all I know, hiding under names like AUXTIN1. Corsair Link 4 showing temps of 90 degrees. That would explain the difference, since Core Max values are relative to Tj,max but the CPU Package value is an absolute one.I have not... unless I did it accidentally. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcutsR7 1700 | Vega 64 | 32GB RAM | Crosshair VI Hero | 1.25TB SSD HWMonitor and Ryzen Master are reporting a CPU temperature of around 24-28 degrees at idle but Corsair Link 4 has something called CPU Package temp and it's at 80 degrees! JavaScript is disabled. Package power is the power that is consumed by the CPU cores, cache, and other uncore (memory controller and igp if you do not have a discrete card. It is the cpu temp reported by the mobo and it is absolutely innacurate (on my x99). I have a new 3570k cpu. Hwinfo for instance give me 46 for cpu package and 48 for cpu core max and the temp i see in ai suite is 37 which correspond to cpu in the motherboard branch of hwinfo (i also see in the same branch a cpu (peci) entry which gives the correct value (46). When using HWmonitor application, I get the cores #0 through #3 and the package temperatures. Hi all, I am confused between which temperature to look at. CPU Package, 39C - 43C, PPO, 34C - 41C, CPU, 34c - 37C, and CPU (PECI) 34C - 37C.
