I know temps can't all be equal simply because of convex IHS's and coolers not meeting properly but weirdly and I have never seen this before my middle cores are cooler than the outside cores which I find bizarre quite honestly, The middle cores on my chips have always been a tad warmer because of surrounding cores.
Although I did notice in Core temp some P Cores keep switching off and the clocks and temps go to 0??? Why are P Cores being switched off? I'd have thought it would have been the E Cores not the P Cores, There is always going to be that lag because some of the faster cores keep switching off
I'd rather keep the faster cores on if possible and if anyone knows it would be very helpful.

Yes im getting the exact same thing on my 12900k.

Hello,
What makes you think they're switching off as opposed to it simply being a polling error?

Hi,
Windows task manager reports exactly the same thing most cores are parked, Here's an example of 1 core but multiple are the same in the task manager I can only highlight one because of the mouse pointer.
Some variation is normal, but if it gets higher you should check your mounting pressure and thermal paste.
Depending on the cooler the plate could also be concave or convex which results in slightly changed temps.
That's my 12900k with the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 (and thermal grizzly)
