Crash put your Air conditionair unit on the side of the case 
Are you sure you have your settings on the mobo right? Or did ya leave it at factory defaults? That might be the problem...

That's your problem. The stock HSF is the bare minimum for an Athlon. I'd recommend getting a better heatsink before doing any overclocking.crash16 said:

What is the case temp? Before ac, of course
The oem heatsink is not going to help things, although they can manage if you put a decent fan on them.
But it doesn't sound like enough airflow through the case- my watercooled rig has more case fans!
Do you have the side panel on the pc? if so, check case temps and then take the side panel off. Check the temps again: ideally they would be about the same, but a well set up case will usually have temps 2 or 3c higher than room temp.
If its a LOT higher you have found a big problem!
Best heatsink in the world needs cool air.

Can you physically see if the fans are slowing down/stopping?
Its looking like either a bad mobo or psu to me....
I would think a bad psu would fail more completely but....?

Yup.
Most programs that read the sensors want to have exclusive access to the info, or some such: only one at a time can read them! lol
So temps and volts looking ok now?

Yeah, good decision. MBM is the much better program...
Nobody really needs Asus Probe
