I have a Pentium D 820 which appears to be working well enough but both TAT and Coretemp claim it's not an Intel CPU! Is this normal for these two applications or is there something strange going on?

Well, quite. Here we are - first one is Coretemp, second one is TAT:

Forgot to add the mobo is a GA945P-S3 just in case it matters.

Pentium D is not a Core mircroarchitecture processor. Core Solo, Core duo, and Core 2 Duo are Core microarchitecture processors. Pentium D is a Netburst processor.

Coretemp only works with Core processors, apparently.
 
Pentium Ds do not have on die temperature readings as far as I know which is what both Coretemp and TAT read from.
