mate, whats your indevidual core temps on idle ?? please state what programs your using to give the temps.
Your core temps are always higher than your overall cpu temp. I use Everest to measure all my temps because you can set it to display in the task bar all the time you are running and I believe it to be quite accurate. You can also set it to display a more in depth system analysis, showing memory speed, Ram voltage, hdd temps O.C, per cent and umpteen other things in the Vista side bar if you want. I tend to do that on boot up to check things, then close the sidebar, but it is always there if you want to look at it. Go by your CPU's overall temps, not the individual core temps as there is quite a difference if you look at my stats?

MAXTOR STM3500320AS 32 ?C (90 ?F)
CPU Core 1.30 V
+3.3 V 3.34 V
+5 V 4.81 V
+12 V 11.65
VDIMM 2.11 V
CPU Clock 3304.0 MHz (original: 2667 MHz, overclock: 24%)
Those are normal working temps, running torrents and not much else.
That should give you enough figures to wonder at for the time being, LOL.
You casnt really compare yours with mine too much though as it is a diferent system to mine and even like for like will be different. This from my small rig with the Q9450 cpu, which has the Vendetta 2 cooler on it. I haven't got the big one on at the moment.
Hope this helps?
