    I was wondering if one of the computer experts we have here could have a look at the attached picture and comment on the temps of my comp. (And the Volts if they can make it make sense ;))

    The CPU is a Pentium D 925 @ 3Ghz

    That is fine for a pentium D. They run a bit hotter than the rest of the processors - its just the way they are I guess. But if that is under a stock heatsink, then 43C is fine for a idle. As long as it doesnt go over 65-70C on load, everything should be ok.

    Cool:)

    The CPU under load goes upto about 55-58 at its peak (so far) and the mainboard has topped out at 65 but that was before I got a new better PSU.

    Havent loaded it up since. But If I remember rightly under the old PSU the CPU idled closer to 50 degrees and never really increased by more than 7-8 degrees under load.

    Ok, as long as the CPU doesnt hit about 65-70C, then everything is normal.
