Tyler, here are some system data screen caps, as you suggested.  I eagerly await your (or anyone else's) words of wisdom....
 
 
 
Odd that by Chipset, RAM is listed as PC2-8500 but by Memory it says PC2-6400?
 
 
These are idle temps, after running about 10 hours through the night, installing XP updates, etc., in a relatively cool, clean, elevated location with no real airflow restrictions.  Your thoughts? 
 
 
Bewheeled, in a demonic fashion.

I see nothing to be concerned about there. Your voltage is conservative, your temperatures look good, although I downloaded PC Wizard, and I  would not trust it without confirming the reported values by comparing with something like Coretemp or your BIOS readings.

 It has been misreporting my southbridge temp as my CPU temp, and my CPU temp as my  "mainboard temp".  This is a real shame too, as the desktop readout while the process is minimized is rather well done. The system voltages are off by a wide margin as well, but this has been true of every software app I have seen to date that attempts to report such values.

*If* the reported values are correct, and you want to reassure yourself about the temperatures, the next step would be to put the system under load and monitor temperatures of the hottest core. Otherwise, I say enjoy the system, things are looking very good.
