I gues the expected speed for the fans are:
CPU-Fan:
Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 : 
expected speed			:2000 RPM
according to sensors output 	:4179 RPM
Bios output 				:2096 RPM

CHA_FAN 1 is an  
Revoltec AirGuard 120mm, 23.94 dBA 
expected speed			:1200 RPM
according to sensors output 	:2494 RPM 
Bios output 				:1256 RPM

PWR_FAN:
Enermax Liberty EL500AWT 120mm Fan
expected speed			:??? RPM
according to sensors output 	:903 RPM / 
Bios output 				:1256 RPM

i would beleive the BIOS values....

Voltages:
			Bios			Sensors with default config
Vcore		1,31V		1,01V (maybe the BIOS value is so high after power up)
3,3V			3,41V		3,22V (i think it is the voltage called VDDR)
5V			5,13V		4,78V
12V			12,3V		11,46V
CPU-Temp	26?			24?
MB-Temp		28?			31?

I think, it doesn't look too bad. Should it be better ?

Sure here is the complete output of "sensors detect"

This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to
load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and
lm_sensors installed before running this program.
Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-*
files, for most things.
If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can
safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may
seem a bit confusing, but they will still work.

It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all
questions, unless you know what you're doing.

 We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
 You do not need any special privileges for this.
 Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): yes
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Sorry, no PCI bus adapters found.

We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.

 To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
 If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this.
i2c-dev is already loaded.

 We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway
 through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected;
 we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case.
 If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can
 specify that address to remain unprobed. That often
 includes address 0x69 (clock chip).

Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.

Do you want to scan the ISA bus? (YES/no): yes
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78'
  Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J'
  Trying address 0x0290... Failed!

Probing for `IPMI BMC KCS'

  Trying address 0x0ca8... Failed!

Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.

Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): yes
Probing for `ITE 8702F Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (0x8716)
Probing for `ITE 8705F Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (0x8716)
Probing for `ITE 8712F Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (0x8716)
Probing for `Nat. Semi. PC87351 Super IO Fan Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `SMSC 47B27x Super IO Fan Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `VT1211 Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `Winbond W83627EHF/EHG Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)

Do you want to scan for secondary Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): yes
Probing for `ITE 8702F Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `Nat. Semi. PC87351 Super IO Fan Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `SMSC 47B27x Super IO Fan Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `VT1211 Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)
Probing for `Winbond W83627EHF/EHG Super IO Sensors'
  Failed! (skipping family)

 Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
 Just press ENTER to continue:

Driver `it87' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
    Chip `ITE IT8712F' (confidence: 8)


I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules.

To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modprobe.conf:

#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe it87
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----
===========================

btw, i have also an 

vendor_id       	: AuthenticAMD
cpu family      	: 15
model           	: 75
model name     : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ 

65Watt Type....
