I´ve a D946GZis (kinda old) MoBo with a Pentium D 925.

Using the intel cooler it runs idle at 59ºC and 72ºC and full throtle. I changed the cooler but the problem persist.

Any advices?
 
Yeah, ideally they aren't suppose to go over 62C, but they often ran hotter than that. The stock cooler wasn't really up to cooling it. I've seen the higher clocked models run around 80-90C. I remember the extreme edition could run some ridiculous 97C or something before being immediately damaged.

Make sure you have good case ventilation and are using good thermal paste.
