Hot Spot Difference

[Mr. Pops]

Hello,

I recently got an RTX3080ti (MSI Gaming X Trio) and I finished replacing the thermal pads (Gelid GP-Ultimate 15W) and repasting (Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut). I have much better thermals now where my memory is much cooler as well as my processor.  Ran Furmark and it leveled out at 62C on the processor with a hot spot of 70C. I was wondering if this is a normal difference or if I maybe didn't paste correctly and need to crack it back open and re-paste again.

Thank you in advance!

8c difference between core temperature and hotspot is probably best I have heard of to date. Mine is around 13-15c higher than core temperature. Everything sound great here, don't touch it.

Awesome! I see everything about GPU temps but no one that I've found has said anything about the difference with the hot spot as well so good to know I'm running cool.
