Ok I just built my family a cheap new pc. (wanted them off my gaming pc)
It seems fine but I'm paranoid. I used one of the new celeron 3300 chips and the heatsink was weird. I had never used intel before and it was way different(crap quality comared to what my phenom came with.)

It looks like its on to me but I'm paranoid. This pc was just turned on... what these temps like to you guys( I have no clue what they are supposed to be)

Thanks for the reply. I've been running prime95 for a few minutes and got this:



Seems to be staying pretty constant.
This pc will be nowhere near running 100% cpu usage so as long as those numbers still look alright then I'm ok with it.
 
Check your temps after your system has been doing nothing for 5 minutes to get an idle temp, then run prime 95 or some other stress testing program to get a load temp, then post those. The temp right after it has been turned on isnt a good way to judge because its somewhere between idle and load but we dont know which its closest to.
