Package and CPU core

[Feconi]

Good afternoon! Can you please tell us in more detail how the temperatures of "Package", "CPU Core" and "P/E Cores" differ? Why do their temperatures differ?

The package can be considered the avg whole cpu temp
P cores performance cores high clocks beefier do most the work
E cores efficncey cores smaller lighter workload cores

 

Temps differ because clock speeds differ and power draw and core size is different across the p and e cores

 

Out of interest what cpu cooler are you using for the temps to hit 91c at 25% cpu work load.

At the time of the screenshot, I was using msi coreliquid c360.
About Package it is clear, and CPU Core then what

The Intel package temperature is the peak temperature found anywhere within the entire package. The peak temperature might be coming from one of the P cores or an E core or the system agent or the iGPU. There are probably a few more temperature sensors within the package. All of these sensors are compared and the highest value is reported as the package temperature. This temperature is what controls thermal throttling and is the most important temperature to watch.

what is CPU Core responsible for?
