Dual Boot Core Temp Discrepancy
Posted: Sat Nov 19, 2016 10:32 pm
Hi, my first post here!
I have a dual boot system, with Windows XP SP3 32 bit and Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit.
It is also a dual processor system, with two x5460 quad core Intel Xeons.
I have the latest version of Core Temp (1.4.1) installed (separately) on both operating systems.
On Windows XP, Core Temp reports the temperatures of the cores of the two processors as being roughly equal, as I would expect, but on Windows 8.1, one processor's temperatures are always around 10 degrees C more than the other.
How can that be, on the same hardware?!
