I've been slowly overclocking my e8400 over the last few days. It went 3.1-3.5 ghz on stock volts. I had to up the voltage to 1.18 to get to 3.55-3.6, 1.20 for 3.65, then 1.30 for 3.7 and 3.8. I had to go to 1.4 for 3.9 and now 4.0. Each test I just ran prime for about 30 mins for a quick stability check and would move on. The 3.8 I left however for 6 hours on the "blend" test.
I'm concerned to keep it at this 3.9-.4.0 range because of all these temps it shows. How can I tell with out using external hardware to monitor temps?
What programs are the most accurate to monitor temps?

Oh no. Looking at my screen shot I am way above 30. >_< I'll go turn it down now.
