Hi everyone

I have just put together my new computer, everything seems ok but my cpu temp is showing 85C. As far as i know this is way to high. Ive checked it using everest, speedfan and coretemp, they all say the same, between 83-86C. Could it be that the sensor is wrong or is it really this high ? Is there any other programs someone can recommend me to try or some kind of test i can run ? The fan on the cpu is a normal intel fan, it came pre-applied with thermal paste. Below are my comp specs

E6300 (not overclocked)
8800gts (pre-overclocked to 600/1800)
Corsair 1GB DDR2 XMS2-5400C4 TwinX (2x512MB)
Gigabyte GA_965P_S3

Problem solved, took off fan and checked cpu, put it all back together and its gone down to 45c. Not sure what the problem was but its fixed. Can i just ask if those high temps would have damaged my cpu in any way ?
