Isn't this a little too hot?

Sorry to post about this. But I did not see anything in the FAQ regarding motherboard temperature.

This is what I get from MBM 5:

Motherboard: 49 C
CPU: 59 C

Isn't that temp a little too high for the motherboard? What can I do to find out what's causing so much heat, and fix it?
The powersupply fan, rear extra exhaust fan, and the CPU fan are all functioning.

That's pretty hot. Your motherboard is running around 120F and your CPU is almost 140F. What is your CPU voltage set at? I think Asus boards have a problem displaying the correct temperature but I may be wrong (my old P3V4X used a cheapo slocket).

I have not changed any settings like CPU voltage etc. recently. It has never been above 35C, and I do not thinking it's reporting the wrong temperature. It's going up, and it is at 50 now! What the hell?! :(
