Hi, im new on overclocking and just bought a new pc. Want to overclock it, havent done much tunning but i think its going a bit hot. Heres my rig:

Asus P5q-Pro
Q6600 1.3125 Vid
2x 2Gb GSkill Ram-Pc6400
640 Gb WD Sata drive
Asus EAH4850
Xigmatek 943

Im doing at this moment 3,4Ghz (377x9) with everything at auto except Vcore at 1.375 and running Prime95 im getting temps that i think that are too high. They reach up to 80° on cores 0 and 1 on full load. On idle all cores 24-27. Also, im getting differences of up to 15° between cores on full load.
Please if anyone knows what i should do i would appreciate it.
