For me: 44C
52C
So, pretty close.

It doesn't seem like TAT works with x64 systems. Any other programs?

Free and useful program. Also, if you minimize it, it puts up a nice little display that shows cpu, core and gfx temps and cpu and core loads.

On mine the CPU idles at about 35C but the cores are usually in the low 50's. The GFX usually idles at around 53C but, of course, goes way up when I play games.
EDIT: Funny, today PC Wiz shows my CPU is idling at 60, but the cores are in the high 40's low 50's and GFX temp is still 53-55.

Okay... now I'm a bit worried. My CPU idles at over 60C, and my GPU is the same, over 60C. Also, it says my GPU fan is running at 100%, and it doesn't seem to go down. What's going on?

Pocket,
Could be a list of things....all related to heat dissipation:
..dust in the fans. need to clean them out
..heat sinks are not seated well.
There are about 6 heat measuring points in the PC. If you use tpfc to measure them, you can see if you have a cpu1 or cpu2 problem etc
