What motherboard do you have? It could be a bios issue of it not displaying
the temps correctly. Maybe the system temp is actually the core temp. My
first thought is you have something really hot right next the the system
temp sensor, but if you have three fans that's probably unlikely. It could
be the sensor is next to the mobo chipset and you have the FSB crank to
overdrive and the thing is getting real hot.
