Not sure what program you have to check temps, but I have been through the same thing. I would guess that the highest temp is a false reading as most mobo only have sensors in the cpu and northbridge. The temps you have look fine, what are they under heavy load. If these are your idle temps and cpu is at 40C, is maybe a little high but not overly. Try opening the side cover of your case and directing a house fan on the mobo and do a temp check and see if ther's any effect. If there is and the temps are lower then you need to address a heating issue, try more fans or a larger heat sink.

Those temps don't look bad, if we suppose that temp 1 is the CPU, and temp 2 is the NB. What CPU?

BTW, where did you get these temps? Since when do OEM comps let you see temps on things other then the hdd? Mine doesn't (Compaq Presario SR1010Z '04)

P.S. the links don't work;)

The temps can be good or bad depending on the hardware you have in place or whether they are stress or idle temps :)
