No OverClocking has taken place, I was wanting to make sure everything ran fine @ Stock Values. As for Temp's, on Idle the CPU was 32c and on full Load (say a game) it hit about 40c which was not high I am sure. The Case Temp was 38c Idle and went as high as 45c on full load.

Now some might say the Top Fan there was the problem, should have been sucking air out of the case, with this set as such - the temp went up actually, 37 idle and so forth.

Every single time I had taken the side of (to see what the noise was about before) and checking by hand the Temps of things, the ram was never hot - this time it was, very hot...

EDIT:
I have the 3 Sticks of Ram in there at the moment, the system the same setup, ran a game for ages and shut the machine down. I Checked the Temp of the Ram by hand, cool as I was expecting - maybe a dodgy slab?
