it runs at 35-35.5C at idle and very light load(like now when listening to mp3s and surfin the net) and can get up to 45-45.5C at bigger loads(like playing farcry). thoes are CPU temps, the mobo and case temps are a bit lower than those. i have 3 fans running and im using AOpen's silentek program to auto-control there speed.

at what temperature should i start worrying?

by the way im running a amd athlon 64 3000+ non-oc'ed on an AOpen AK-86-L (K8T800) mobo, 512mb ram, msi radeon 9800 pro, 120gig seagate HD, dvd rom drive, sblive.
 
If your computer locks up or crashes or reboots, it got too hot. Otherwise, it's just fine, and you shouldn't worry.
 
Your temps are pretty good actually. You really don't have to worry until your system starts locking up, but if you like to extract the most out of your CPU life, keep it under 50C. Personally, I like to keep it under 45C...

That's if you plan on keeping it for more than 10 years.
