Idle temperatures don't mean anything. Use a program such as Prime95 for LinX to load up the processor. Monitor temperatures with CoreTemp, which is written by our very own The Coolest. It would also help to know your full system specs and what changes you've made in the BIOS, if any.
If you use the LinX program, click the "All" button next to memory before starting the test. Let it run at least 30 minutes.
You ran three iterations with max memory in less than 8 minutes? I would like to trade you computers! Be sure to click the "All" button next to the memory drop down box before starting the test.
The temperatures sound find, however.
You don't see the option I mentioned because that isn't the program I linked.

It is the same backend, but this has a much better UI.
I don't see why the temperatures are an issue. In the past, "CPU" temp was normally read by a sensor in the socket of the processor (inaccurate). They then added sensors directly within the processor die itself, and both likely co-existed. Now, there is no reason to have a sensor in the socket, so they likely just read whatever CoreTemp (and others) read.
Temps look fine, low actually.
Tcase means nothing and isn't comparable to core temps.
VID is the stock voltage for a CPU, so they range from 0.6 to 1.35v.
Are you OCing the CPU? What settings are you using? Are you using auto voltage? It's recommended to dial in the vcore you need manually instead of using auto as auto tends to overvolt by quite a bit.
You didn't damage the sensors.
I can't read any text in your pic due to compression.
You can use offset voltage when OCing. Vcore and CPU speed should be independent options that you can adjust. You don't necessarily need more vcore for a higher speed.
Try going back to your higher speed and reducing vcore.
Ah, OK. Just needed to right-click on it.
Looks fine to me for idle but that doesn't mean much. Put a load on it so I can see how she does.
I can't see your BIOS settings, though. I can't tell how you've got offset voltage and LLC set. Can't see RAM settings either.

Try increasing Stress Level to High or Max.
