Hello, I was currently told that my Mac Pro 1,1 is currently "overheating" by a friend. I have attached a screen shot of my current iStats pro widget. Any tips, advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.

I am becoming "concerned" with this because my computer is randomly freezing up for a few seconds here and there. Time times very frequently, others not so frequent. It was while I was just in a video game, now its starting to happen while nothing is really open except for my browser.

I don't see any overheating on these temps. I converted fahrenheits to celsius (im european) and if 94F are 34-35º, these are good/normal temperatures, even cool... take in mind that Xeons are server processors.

Powerful -> more heat.
