8400 overclock

I did some testing of my temps at specified settings:

3.6Ghz
vcore 1.1250
load line calibration - enabled - vcore was nailed at 1.12v
cpu & pcie spectrum disabled
vdimm 2.0v

idle 50c using Hardware monitor - core temp confirmed 50c

I ran HW monitor because it records max and min readings and tested about 15-20 min of gaming on UT3 and my recordings showed:

max core # 0 61c or 141f
max core # 1 62c or 143f

the other sensor recorded 114f max on ? what is it ? the mobo sensor?

but, are those core temps alright? or too hot?
