This is my first build ever and I am a bit worried that my motherboard and CPU are running too hot. I have read many different articles saying that the E8400 does not give out the right temperatures. I have downloaded a bunch of the programs that everyone talks about here to read the temperatures and played Track Mania Nations Forever for a bit and then took a screen shot of all the temperature monitors. After that I let my computer idle for a bit and then took another screen shot of the monitors. Can someone decipher these temps and let me know what the real temperatures are and if they are too high. I have ordered an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 which I will be installing next week when I receive it to bring my temps down a bit I hope. I am also considering ordering a Noctua NU-06 chipset cooler as well. So should I be worried about the below temperatures?
Here are my system specs:
