Thanks for the reply, Duncan. I'm not exactly worried, but sort of
wondering if my hs/fan is on correctly.
If I open task manager, and look at the CPUs in "performance" I see no
evidence that core 4 is the work horse. Usually, it is core 1 doing
most of the work. Right now I can seem some rumbling among the core.
None of them seem to be doing much as I type this, even though I have a
bunch of windows open right now. I'll get a spike once I send this! :)

Anthony,
I only have C2D, but I always notice that one core runs "cooler" than
the other. I chalk this up to I have a core in reserve for when some
problem/program/etc. needs the 2d core. Believe this is nothing to
worry about. JMHO.
Perhaps your core 4 is the one that gets all the normal duties; the
other 3 just float waiting to be called to duty.

Are you folks sleeping or working? :)
I notice on my Q9550 that core 4 always runs several degrees C higher
than the other cores (right now they are 33, 33, 34, and 39 degrees C).
Anyone know why? I'm using RealTemp 3.4 to monitor temps. It has been
this way for a while now, no matter how I have the hs/fan mounted.
Thanks.
