That's a bit warm if not under full load. What kind of cooling? And what's your ambient room temperature?

Air cooled one with a Thermaltake Valcano 8 and other with thermaltake volcano 7.
Sitting inside a thermaltake Xaser case. Just took it apart tonight and air sprayed everything clean to make sure that wasnt causing any problems. So temps were taken after the cleaning. Case fans are as follows, two on side intake, one in front intake, one on top exhuast, one in back exhuast, and then psu has fan blowing exhuast.

How long ago did you apply thermal paste? If it's the generic stuff maybe it's just drying up.

My dual MPs ran at about 50C to 58C on idle typically. If you are running these on a k7d like I was then I am pretty sure that the temp sensor on the board tends ot read a bi thigh so take the measurements with a grain of salt.

On the same motherboard, under load, my pair are running at 52C and 56C, with the ambient at 29C. This is also with the stock fans that came with the CPUs (yes, the little tiny ones).
