My Rig & my new overheating rig!!!! Need Help PLZ

Hey guys whats up? Haven't had a chance to post here much but I figured I would get your guys input and comments on a few things.

I built my new pc about a year ago and its been great so far let me know what you think!

Asus A8N-SLI Premium
AMD 64 X2 4400+ (Socket 939)
Corsair XMS PC3200 1024 x2 (in CPU-Z it says: PC3200 (200MHz) shouldn't it be 400?)
PCI-E Geforce 7800GT
2x Western Digital 250GB HD 16MB Cache in Raid 1







How do my temperatures look after being at 100% for about 10min? Also why does it show that 2 of the sensors are at 127º? Also how bad is it that the Core spikes to 50º after being at 100% for a bit?




Here is where I REALLY need help!

While on the subject I built my mom a Pentium D 915 w/ stock HSF & Arctic Silver 5. 1GB Corsair XMS DDR2 800 on a Gigabyte motherboard (budget build). Unless I am completely missing something the damn thing runs HOT!

IDLE: Nothing Running


FULL LOAD: After everything running for 45-60 seconds!


WTF DO I DO! Its brand new and I have to ship it 16 hours away to my mom so this thing has to last!

Your AMD cpu temp is about the same as my overclocked C2D core temp. 46'c idle & 51'c load. Intel specs list max 61'c.

Your mom's P-D is pretty hot at full load. Could you take a photo of it? What are the case & case fans? Is it overclocked? A quick fix is to disable Q-Fan for ASUS or any cpu fan speed control in bios. The fan will run at full speed & is loud, but it'll cool the temp down.

I agree reappling the paste won't do much - unless you are lapping both the HSF and IHS beforehand, it can improve temps by several degrees with a bit of work.

I updated the BIOS to the newest version and TAT will not work on a Pentium D (mine atleast) and neither will Core Temp.

Okay so I did everything everyone suggested, I figured in the end less is more with the AS5. Evidently not... here are some pics of the process and in the bios after 3 minutes I am sitting at 65ºC CPU Temp (and still rising as I type this, shown in pics) and the CPU fan speed at 2636, System Temp 35ºC and the room is cold....




















I pressed the Heatsink down on the processor and it spread out to a quarter like shown but I figured it was alittle thick so I cleaned the heat sink off again (another 10 qtips in alcohol for 10 minutes no grease left). You can see that I left the grease on the processor and then reinstalled the heatsink as per the instruction asus provides with their motherboards which were detailed and very helpful!

I'm going to call newegg asap and see if they will take back the board, processor, and ram and exchange it so I can get an AMD setup as this is complete BS.

Please tell me that it is ME and that I am doing something wrong and this isn't a usual circumstance.

Edit:
I am sitting in windows 10 minutes now 0% CPU Usage and my temps in speed fan are 40C & 44C. The second I do anything the temps jump up and I get the flame icon... (50º+C)

Edit again:
Running something as small as CCleaner and making the cpu spike to 45% usage makes the temps hit 56ºC.

I RMA'd the whole setup and I'm going to reorder and go with AMD X2 this time around like I should have the first time. This damn thing was WAY too hot. I'm sure their not all like this but no more intel for me for along time anyways.
