Aren't these temps too high?

I've been having random bootups on this rig since I got it. This morning, I ran Everest & got these temps which are basically the same as the ones I've gotten before:

Motherboard 55 °C (129 °F)
CPU 42 °C (108 °F)
North Bridge 56 °C (129 °F)
GPU 52 °C (126 °F)
GPU Memory 48 °C (113 °F)
WD HD 39 °C (102 °F)
Hitachi HD 34 °C (93 °F)

I'm changing my ram - ran memtest & got a bunch of errors. The temps, though, I think might be either the psu or the h/s. The psu is 400 watts and the h/s is amd stock.

Win2k Pro
AMD FX-53
DFI UT ultra-D
2x512 Geil PC3200 ram (about to change)
Asus x800 vid
Lian-li v.1000 case

So, what do you think? Too high or okay? The guy that built this rig says temps are okay, but my gut is that they're too high.

Nothing serious, though they do seem a bit high-ish to me as well. Nothing that should cause random reboots though.

Hmm, so maybe the reboots (and they are damn near all of the time) are caused just because of bad ram?

Hey, I have a quick tangent question....

When I run Everest, I look for my hard disk temperature and this is what it tells me:
TRESHOLD: 42
VALUE: 75
WORST: 72
DATA: 66
STATUS: OK/Value is normal

What does all that mean? What's my hard disk temperature?

I say it's the RAM. The temps are pretty normal, and since you're getting errors in memtest, you should probably replace it. If you still get random reboots, it might be the PSU. What PSU do you have?

t3h, I can't see the brand just looking in the case. I was told it was 400 watts. Right now, I've got to make a run. Will check it later today and post back.

o_O it came with the case?! It's probably generic... First try replacing the RAM, then if you still get random reboots, it's probably the power supply...
