grabibus 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 Hello, here is my rig : ASUS X99-Deluxe II i7-5930K @ Core=4.5GHz / Cache = 4.5GHz @ Vccin=1.8V / Vcore=1.17V / Vcache = 1.2V RAM G.SKILL @ 3200MHz @ 1.35V Here is a screenshot at idle : What is CPU Package ? Why is it so high versus Core temps ? Is this an issue ? EIST and C-States are enabled Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiery 403 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 CPU Package is the temperature provided by the CPU itself. It has a built-in digital thermal diode that provides the temperature reading that AIDA64 then displays as "CPU Package". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grabibus 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 Hello, thank yoiu. You mean it is Tcase ? On HWInfo forum, it is explained that CPU Package is a 256 ms average of the hottest sensor in the CPU - so the max among all IA Cores, iGPU, Uncore, etc. And they say it is not Tcase. So also what is "Processur" value ? I have used Intel Extreme tuning Utility and they have also a "CPU Package" parameter which is 5°C below your value. I don't underdstand how I can have core max temp under load at 75°C and Tcase at 80°C.... Tcase should be worst case = Tcore max.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiery 403 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 CPU Package is not Tcase. It's what was explained on the other forum. Processur (or "CPU") is provided by the sensor chip integrated on your motherboard. I can't comment on Intel XTU, since it's not our software. It may use an offset value of minus 5 Celsius on the actual CPU Package reading though. But that's just a theory.

Fiery 403 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 You only need to worry -- slightly -- in case your CPU throttles under heavy load. You can check the throttling state (in %) in AIDA64 / main menu / Tools / System Stability Test. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
