Just finish my first build...

[aurelius97]

Just completed my first build after about 5 hours of on again and off again work. It consists of the Asus A8N-SLI Premium, Athlon X2 4400+ with stock cooling, OCZ Plats., all put into the Antec P180 case. My question is what should my temps look like? According to ASUS Probe, my CPU is at 40 C and so is my motherboard. All I have been doing is getting driver updates and haven't had a chance to game with it yet. Can you guys give me some feedback? Thanks in advance.

40C is fine, enjoy your new setup

software temp readings are sometimes inaccurate. However, even if your CPU was at 40c and so was your chipset, thats fine.

My CPU in my is at 35c and chipset at 45c

What kind of video card do you have?

Thanks everyone for your feedback. Azndude2190, I'm using the ATI Radeon X800XL. I'm hoping it satisfies my gaming needs. I'm not a hardcore gamer, but if PC Games continues to develop like they do, then I'll be increasing my budget for top of the line everything.
