Hi
I’m not sure which is more important, CPU temperature or core temperatures.
From what I understand, the CPU temperature reflects the chip as a whole and a sensor that can vary between cores, often being higher than the actual CPU temp.
Core temperatures are calculations based on that data and can differ significantly from one core to another.
Which should you track to avoid overheating?
Thanks

The heat is generated in the cores, which remain the most intense area of the processor, meaning you must regularly check the core temperatures.
