    No, I didn't photoshop. Sometime's when my pC is on I get a message because it says its overheated and then I check the temprature, and its aground 200 degrees. Should I worry about this? It has the normal stock fan and its not overclocked. Normal its 70C stressed and 30 idle.

    Now I can't even play cod, getting only 20FPS :P <_<

    Nein, ich bin niederlandisch.
    I don't think it is really true, because at 200degrees, it should already melt, and it didn't. Maybe some dust is preventing the sensor to work properly. And the temperature doesn't change after that it stays the same. I am rebooting now. Sees' if its fixed.

    umm nice temps... my 7800GT doesn't go past 70 full load as far as I know... crazy dude...

    umm try touching it see if it's really 200C... heh... burn off your hand if it is. Keep in mind that those emp readers are not 100% accurate.

    125C on the CPU, whid that's high as it is. wouldn't an athlon die at like 100... higest mine's ever reached was 52 during stability testing but that was with the case off and while no case fans were being run.

    I won't post before I tried everything I could. its working and, now just when playing CoD, I get 200C already again, but this is just total BS, because when looking in everest, it shows 40C.

    hmm, the sensor might be faulty then... you might want to re-put the hs/f on, putting new AS5 on it... If it is running that high, which I doubt, try getting a new fan...

    if you see 40 in Everest and 120 on the other one... go with the more logical answer.... it is obviously not going to be running 120+*C so just assume it is running 40*C

    Already fixed guys, took the card out and made it clean. Then I removed the IHS of the GPU card, and now its running 5C lower then normal. All fixed.
