AX4SG CPU kernel temperature = 165F ?too hot?

[RideFree]

According to the BIOS readings, this board (with a stock-clocked 2.4) is running 74C/165F.
I think this is high and am concerned.

Apparently, SisSoftware is also, as Sandra warns,
"Warning W2518 - Mainboard temperature is too high (i.e. over 50ºC). This should appear only if the mainboard has a temperature-monitoring sensor installed.
Fix: Power down the system immediately. Open the case and check that all the fans are working and check whether components are unusually hot inside. Make sure the components have good all-round ventilation. Use more fans if required.



SiSoftware Sandra Help File"

Now, this system has 6 case fans (everything is brany-new), the Zalman 7000Cu and is about 30C/80F in all of the other readings - in a 65F room.

WTF is up?

Thanks in advance...
PS the CPU HS is accurately installed w/ the latest Céramique from A/S.

I know nothing about that board but at that temp clock throttling should kick in. Maybe a faulty temp sensor or software glitch? Bump for your problem.
