Gaming CPU Temperature on Linux – Ubuntu 24.04

The hypothesis is: Could the CPU temperature in MangoHUD be reading core 0 only for temperature reading or could it be showing the highest core temperature at the logged moment in time between all cores used?

Note that because OBS was used to test, there is a considerable FPS drop for all games (Between 5 FPS in some games to 40 FPS in others). Apart from that, multiple games were being executing at the same time, so that also drops the FPS. Lastly, we are testing the CPU Boost (Turbo Boost on Intel, Precision Boost on AMD), so by enabling and disabling it, it WILL affect the max FPS or average FPS shown.
