Dear Reckz93,

Thank you for choosing ASRock.

Regarding your case, we have built a system to check, it looks the CPU each core temperature are similar.

This is our system configuration:

CPU: i7-4790k

Motherboard: Z97X Killer 3.1

OS: Windows 10 RS2

We provide some suggestion to verify.

1. Please put this CPU to another system to check if the symptom is the same.

2. Install another CPU on Z97X Killer 3.1 to check.

Thank you!

Yours truly,

ASRock TSD
