CPU too hot?

Hey guys. I am having a crazy time trying to figure this one out. I recently started messing around with my video cards with CCC and ATI Overdrive. I have a HIS 3850 Turbo and a 3870 Crossfired. I did the "Auto Tune" option on Overdrive, put Crysis on VERY HIGH settings, no AA, and my computer froze, restarted and would not load to the desktop after that. I re-installed windows vista 64 bit and all my drivers, and now my cpu is running 15 degress hotter than it was before on IDLE and 20 degrees hotter on LOAD. I have an AMD Athlon 64 DC 5200+ with the Zalman CNPS 9700. I have tried virus scans, spyware and completely wiping my HD to get rid of the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
Dunno, but maybe the autotuning did something weird with your voltages, fan settings, etc. I would go to your bios and check to see if everything is at the stock levels.
