The X2s are generally safe to about the high 50s and when it hit 65+, it should auto-shutdown

my cousins 4200+ idles at 50 , load 57

but then again he does have NO case fans besides a single 80 mm exhaust, and the psu fan

the 6800GT below his cpu is hot too.. not to mention the raptor ... :S he really needs a new case

50/57 is a horrible temp for a 4200, where does he live? like near the equator?

the OP has a p180, you have a TT. i'd take the p180 anyday over tt's crap. unless you're talking about your cousin's case, which isn't specified.
