ideal temps?

after running my sys in a game of T2 or Q3 with all options maxed, my CPU temp was 117 F, and the mobo was about 90 F. idle my cpu is 107 F and mobo is 82 F. What should these temps be at?
I have an amd 1.33(not Oc'ed) on a asus a7m266 mobo. Nothing is OCed, and i have artic silver II under the HSF. The HSF i have is the OCZ gladiator with the standard fan(not with the delta 38cfm). i believe the fan is a 36cfm 60mm. the case is the lian-li pc68, 2 intake fans on the front, and one in the back, with an enermax PS, one intake, one exhaust fan.
If these temps are not close to being where they should be, im open for suggestions. Obviously i know i could always get the delta fan and pop more fans for exhaust/intake on the case, but if there is anything else i can do, please let me know.

sounds like good temp to me. for better cooling, u might want to use another fan intake, especially if you use the filter.
 
ok good. ya i guess the airflow is not idea pulling thru the filter. ill look into smacking another one in the front. and possibly one on the side.
are there any charts i can look at that you know of that show what the threshold is , the temp that i should worry about when i get near it?

thnx for the quick reply btw
