Just goes to show that correctly applying thermal paste can make all the difference.

that Core temp also shows you need to burn in the processor some more (j/k).
actually, the temperature looks pretty good.
and i think 1-2 and up to 5 degrees celsius different between or among each core during system "idling" should not be much concerned to user.
however, when the system processor in "full load", the difference between each CPU core's should not be, at all time, more than 2°C.
and besides the CPU cooler, computer case air flow, (and just you might add the thermal compound to this), as you can notice, the room temps can/will make the big different on the system's and processor's temps. different room temps, different system temps.
