Q6600 question

I just built my new machine which includes a Q6600 Energy Efficient 95W edition Socket 775 (2.40GHz) G0 Stepping L2 8MB Cache OEM Processor and MSI Neo F board and a Arctic Cooling AC-FRZ-7P Freezer 7 Pro.

I have left the board settings on auto and was wondering if these and temps and voltage look okay?

Those seem a touch high to me. Nothing really to worry about though.
What is the air flow in your case like? It helps to have a couple exhaust and intake fans. That will drops temps by a few degrees itself.

And Coretemp is the most accurate program to use on Intel 65nm cores.

Your vcore looks a bit high compared to what I have here.

I have 1.28 max, 1.12 min.

Your temps are a bit lower than mine at idle speed (at 1.6Ghz), so it should be fine.

your temps are fine but your vcore is way too high. Lower it down a bit.

That was Idle and stock voltage setting. The VID of the chip I have is 1.325v. I have since oc'd to 3.0GHz without changing the voltage. There is no option to make it lower than that in the BIOS only higher. The idle temps have not changed the air temp (ambient) is about 22C. Under load temps are getting to 61C with core temp. I have an arctic freezer pro 7 hsf and one 120mm exhaust fan. I have just ordered an intake fan which hopefully will have arrived today.
