Just built a new computer 3200+ 939 core on a eVGA SLI motherboard with a stock fan I am getting temp read outs of 108 F to 114 F just on boot up. Is there cause for concern?

my system boots up at 88 F to 91 F so i am kinda concerned

Just stock fan and thermal paste that comes with AMD retail.

You should add some case fans, even the less powerful ones help a great deal at circulating cold air through the case.

114 degrees Fahrenheit = 45.56 degrees Celsius.

I'd worry at 65 and 70 is a cause for alarm. 45.56 is a great temp!

No need for other fans or cooling AT ALL, unless you plan to overclock.
 
I have an X2 4400 in a sonata, 1 silent rear case fan and the PS fan, at idle the case is 30 C, cpu 35 c, and hard drives are 30 c, under Prime95 on each core the temps peak at 45 c and all others mid 30's except drives which are low 30's. This is overclocked to 2432 MHz. At stock 2200 speed temps are a couple degrees lower, and I have 2 raptors, 2 300gb drives, 2 dvd burners, 4x512 memory, stock HS and fan, and a Pabst PS(460w) with a 7800 GT in an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI board. Needless to say I am very pleased, our apt temp is usually 64-70 F. I was running a 2nd 120mm fan behind the drive cage but case temps were running 10 degrees hotter, just an fyi
