What is the temp of the ambient air, and how are you cooling the cpu
Seems a bit strange but hey you might be lucky

System Spec's:
Asus P4c800-E 3.2e @3.8ghz
1gb corsair xms pro2-2-2-5 aiw 9800 pro
audigy 2zs klipsch ultra's
74gb raptor wd 2000jb
pioneer 108 pioneer 120s
 
There is also a possibility that your motherboard is not reporting the correct temperatures. This is common with quite a few boards. Have you updated to the latest BIOS?

What heatsink are you using?
