Now, I've noticed, with the e2160, Coretemp and uguru shows the exact same temps, at idle and load.

But, with my q6600, Coretemp Shows higher temps from 10c on the coolest core to 20c difference on the hottest core compared to Uguru Temps.

Along with that, PWM uses 100A easily, the q6600 is at 440mhz x8.
I'm worried about the diffrence in temps between coretemp and uguru, I can't use coretemp because I run vista64bit (and I prefer to keep the driver protection) , now during the winter it doesn't matter if the real temp is 20c higher, but in the summer that is critical.

What should be trusted?
