SpeedFan displays two temps related to my CPU. First one is CPU and the other one is Core. Which one should be monitored? My CPU temp is 7 degrees Celsius higher than the Core temp.

Get HW Monitor or Coretemp if you have an AMD. Speedfan is known not to be accurate.

It is common for the CPU temp to be higher than the core temp but to answer you question, core temp is the critical one to watch.
