you dont have to worry about the temps you are seeing, probably stuck lng ang sensors ana just like mine. ive been using E8400 with Zalman 9700 led for 8 months now and i also get the same temp readings, dagko ug diff between the 2 cores. i tried reseatting my cooler and applied paste for about 3 times, i get the same results, but no problems at all
