Sooo i was fooling around with ATItool awhile ago and when i start it up, it shows my temps are 56/48 degrees celsius... Im simply browsing the internet and watching TV. I haent checked it when im gaming, but I was "finding max core" and turned away to grab some food, and when i came back.. temps were in excess of 75. I quickly aborted and havent attempted it since. My computer doesnt have a problem with restarting or anything, ever. I havent modified anything since i got it. Is this a problem?

Intel P4 3.00ghz

WOW! Those are some hot temps!!! First, I would suggest downloading PC Wizard and see what temps that throws at ya... if they are still that high, I would highly reccomend new cooling devices

Mobo- 40
Power- 48

Are you talking about the temps that were displayed in ATI Tool? If so, thats the temperature of the video card, not the processor. 75C is perfectly normal for a video card, and thats to be expected because when you clicked on "Find Max Core", it puts full load on the video card.
