• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

What am I doing wrong here

Some variation is fine, but a 10 degree difference is pushing it. It may be your heatsink, your cpu, or both are not very flat, causing uneven pressure. Easy way to tell is to place a straight edge (e.g., metal ruler) across it.

More likely though is that you have a stuck or faulty sensor. Download Realtemp - it has diagnostic that it does to test for this.
 
That's just a 6-7c variation, like Zero82z said perfectly normal.
 
I have a pretty steady 8-10C variation between cores 0 and 1 on my quad. Variations like that are perfectly commonplace and not a cause for concern.
