I was using a friend's system for the first time today, and notice his temps on his PIII 866 were running in at about 60C as reported in the BIOS by the PIII onboard thermistor. I know these are waaaay more accurate than the Athlon/Duron thermistors which are not on the CPU core, but is this temperature too high.

P.S. The system is rock stable and the cooler isn't too hot either. Feels like my FOP38 with my DURON 900 @ 1.84V.

Which is at 42C btw.
