Cores or center sensor thinger. My cores hit 60, but center thing hits low 50s, and i think thermal spec is on the center thinger?

50C is not too hot. that is a nice overclock and acceptable temps. but are those idle temps or load? run orthos or prime95 or even tat at 100% load both cores and see what temperatures you get.

you should keep thing below 60, or 55 to be on the safe side. and generally the cores and 'center thingy' are only a couple degrees appart for the c2d's. just stay below 55 and you cpu will have a very long happy life

that was 50C under full load of orthos, while tat, speedfan, core temp and cpu-z were all running. occaisionally as high as 52 on the overall cpu, while the individual cores where fluctuating in the high 40's. so at 3.3 ghz at that temp, i should be fine then?

Having 50c on full load is nothing to worry about. Remember that your temps are also affected by Ambient temperature.

If you load under 55C all is good...
But never go over 55C+ It can kill your CPU...
