I just changed my motherboard from an Asus P5WDH to an Asus P5K Deluxe, and I noticed a difference in the temperatures.
It's not that the actual temps, idle and load are different, because they are not. My question is actually regarding the difference in temps between loads.
For instance, I am monitoring the temps via either Speedfan or Coretemp. At idle, just sitting at desktop, the temp is about 35. As SOON as I place load on the processor, the temp jumps to about 44. And then when I take load off the CPU, it goes back down to about 35.
The temps at load are about 53 at maximum load with ambient temps about 29C. The rig is in my sig. It's 24/7 stable at the OC I tested.
Is this a normal temp fluctuation? By the way, both cores are always within 1-2 degrees of each other at all times.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
