Sounds good. Here we go.

What is the difference between my Temperature CPU (28*C) and my Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Core #0 (37*C)?

9c I think.

No I was joaking. The 2 different temperatures are measured by two different type of sensors located in different location in the CPU.

The CPU temperature is measured by a thermal diod and located on the center of the CPU integrated heat spreader, below or above the core I am not sure. The Thermal Specification for your CPU is the maximum operational temperature for your CPU and measured by this sensor.

The core temps are measured by Digital Thermal Sensors(DTS) located on the hot spot of each core and their purpose is to prevent damage to the processor from over heating. When it reaches it's maximum defined value(TJmax,) it will start throteling the CPU speed do reduce power consumption and heat.

Ah. Sounds good.

The CPU temperature diode is located on the motherboard, as far as I know, not on the CPU. If it were on the CPU I'm sure HardOCP wouldn't drill into it to add their own. If you want to accurately measure TCase, you have to add your own sensor. The centre of the IHS is merely where Intel state you should measure from.

The CPU temp reported by the board is safe to ignore. Only pay attention to core temps.

This was based on Core i7 and Core 2 Temperature Guide. I can only go by what I find to read.

I've been monitoring my temps and everything seems to be going smoothly. Thank you for your help guys :)
