    Do I need to worry about this odd motherboard temperature?

    Also a 3570k at 60C at an average gaming load is OKAY (stock fan) right?

    If those are your temps under load, I'd say you're fine. I assume the "TMPIN0" reading is your CPU. ~60C is perfectly reasonable under load. Especially with a stock cooler.

    as JJ mentioned, if its under load or doing stuff then 60 degrees is okay... if thats at idle (just sitting at the windows desktop) then I would try dusting it out with a can of air first before getting too worried
