Those temps look fine mate.

a little to low if anything, maybe not being stressed much.

What's your system built with?

How do you know hes temps are fine. He didnt even state the system hes using.

You using water cooling? Otherwise I Can't see how youd get system temps above CPU temps. If that's the case, the case temps look high, and could use some ventilation. What's the GPU temps?

Or maybe your system temps are motherboard temps.

Why do you think i asked what his system was?

and with temps like that, regardless of kit, are still low.

Also think the op has temps mixed up.

and overclocked to 3.7 this is my system at idle

That looks OK, a tad high for complete idle. Maybe it's just a warm room, or needs to improve airflow in the case (fan profile at high? hard drive cage in the way or intake fan?).

CPU-Z will give you more temps (System, northbridge, CPU cores, CPU and GPU).
