over heating for no reason?

ok, here is the deal. recently my computer has started over heating bad. at full load it will hit 72 C. my system is a p4 2.8 E, Asus p4p800 delux, 1 gig of kingston ram, 512 of mushkin ram. thermaltake 460 watt psu, BBA radeon 9800 pro, 200 gig sata, 300 gig sata and dual nec dvd burners. my most recent changes to the system are the new 300 gig hdd, a new PSU from RMA, and the kingston ram. i have removed or swapped out all of those as well as reapplied new thermal paste and reseated the heatsink and no change. i have also tried several bios' and motherboard drivers. is there anything else i should try?

Are you overclocking? Any voltage bumps? Try toning those down if you are.

edit: Maybe a bogus diode....

i used to over clock, but turned it down, at most i was at 3.0. the only over volt is on my ram at 2.8 which is what mushkin and kingston told me to run the ram at. bad diode on what? i just got the motherboard back from rma a couple months ago
