Hey all. Recently purchased a whole buncha stuff on Boxing day and finally got to put this thing together.

I have:
Maximus III Gene Mobo
Pentium i5 760 2.8ghz OC'd to 4.01ghz, cooled by a Corsair H50
Corsair Vengeance 4GB ram 1x4gb
and a Radeon 5850.

Now, checking on Real Temp I'm noticing my idle temps at 45c (doesn't really matter, but fyi)

Now I run Prime95 and ran it for about 30 mins and it topped off at 68-70c in Real Temp...are these normal numbers?

I've seen discussions where it idles like 6 degrees lower and when it is in prime it is in around 55-65 tops...

Any support is appreciated. Thanks.
