i7 5820k Temps

[Penurious]

When looking at HWMonitor should you look at the individual core temps or the package temps?

Cores

But you should at times pay attention to overall heat from the CPU

Both.

Cores are technically more important, but keeping an eye on both is definitely a good call.

ok thank you, another one,
my 5820k is running 5% load at 35-37C Cores and package is about 46C is this too hot for idle

No, this is totally fine.

Too hot for idle would be about 60 to 100

Ok cool thank you, im going to run ida64 for about 10 hours and see what max temps hit, but i should push for less than 85c right?

Ill be back with full load results

I mean 85C is totally fine for an i7, but not a temp I personally would want my cpu to pinned at for 24/7 operation.

You shouldn't see any adverse effects though from that temperature. It will underclock itself if it gets too hot.

Well so far it hasn't gone over 70C on 100% usage so that's good, ill see how it runs in a couple hours

On Broadwell-E (BWE) and Haswell-E (HWE), you should watch package temps as they are always going to be higher than core temps.  Most monitoring software do not report package temp correctly and simply give you the value of the highest core temp.  AIDA64 reports package temps accurately and once you start using it, you'll find that it is generally a lot higher than core temps.  For most other i7 CPUs, core temps are fine.

Ran it for 10+ hours and It didnt go over 65C, I think this is a very stable overclock!
