    Normal Temps and Tools?

    I just recently got back into computing after a long hiatus with a pretty old system. Last night I put together a system with an E8400 (stock speeds), and Asus P5Q Pro motherboard. What I was wondering it what are good temps to have for these processors and what tools are most people using to monitor temps. Last thing I used was motherboard monitor which i doubt supports newer chipsets. I am using stock cooling and thermal paste. While in the bios temps were reading at around 102f which seems to me to be pretty decent. Thanks

    CPU temp in the 30s C is good... since your temp is 38.9 C, I say that you are doing just fine. But since I'm assuming that temp is during idle, it could be a tad bit lower...
