For some reason, my MB gives outragously high cpu readings. I've tryed other programs, but for soem reasons it still shows about the same temp. I'm pretty sure a k6-2 300, not o/ced, would not show a cpu temp above 250 F especially since the heatsink is cool to the touch when its on.

Check the HSF seating. Ur HSF SHOULD NOT BE COOL WHEN TOUCH. It should be warm. U get those temp from the bios ?
