Good temps?

[Gusty987]

I just ran 3dmark03 on my PC and after it finished (6230 pts.) my CPU (A64 3000+ @ 2160MHz) temp was 50 degrees celcius. I have stock AMD heatsink/fan. Is that safe?

Now after playing some Call of Duty it is at 52. Is this safe, and should I reduce my OC?

I would say that's a pretty good temperature. What's your room temp btw?

 

[Gusty987]

It's probably about 72-74 degrees F in this room.

40C - 45C is good.

50C is ok. Over 60C is worrisome ... 65 - 70C - you've got issues to be worried over fo'sure.
