Threadripper 1950x temp issue

[Sigma-MK7]

I have a threadripper 1950x and the temp on node 0 is 10c higher than on node 1 on idle and if I stress test it node 0 goes up to 68 c almost instantly while node 1 stays at 28c.

what could the problem be.

Build

Cpu:ryzen threadripper 1950x

Cpu cooler: corsair h115i

ram:16 gb g skill

psu:850w evga supernova

mobo: gigabyte designare x399

Pretty sure its just a temp sensor elsewhere that doesn't get hotter under load. Im not sure exactly where node 1 and 0 is. What does MSI afterburner say your CPU temp is? I would not worry about it. Im not 100% sure on this its just what I would assume from experience.

I also use the ryzen master app for and it only displays that high temp when I start prime95

If all your temps are reporting fine in something like MSI afterburner or the ryzen master app and its only showing this one weird node sensor in that program, which is sounds like, I think everything is fine.

Re-reading your post, more input.

 

Imagine one sensor is just off the CPU or on motherboard, and one is on the CPU. One would be 10C higher because its on the CPU and idle load is keeping slightly warmer while the other one is just sitting at ambient temp or very close to it . When you stress the CPU, the cpu sensor obviously instantly spikes to proper temp, however the sensor off the CPU still stays around ambient as it itself isn't experience any increased load.

You should be using a TR4 specific cooler that covers the entire IHS, might be the issue.

Im using the corsair H115i recommended by AMD

That was before there were any TR4 coolers

Node 0 is 10c higher than node 1 even on idle but node 0 spikes 10c up and comes down instantly triggering my fans to a higher speed.

i use the x52 so if its as big as that i guess it should be ok if you apply paste like on the video above

There's no reason not to use a TR4 specific cooler at this point. Especially if temps are an issue.

temps are not an issue its temp spikes on idle. when im gaming temp stays at 37c max. but when idle it has temp spikes

Corsair H115i is recommended by AMD and works great.
