The two cores can be different temperatures. The physical id 0 value is the package temperature, which will typically just be the highest of the core temperatures. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
