Hey guys

Basically just wanted to inquire about my tempurature's, i have an AMD Phenom II 955 BE, 3.2 stock clock

Im using a

Xigmatek Red Scorpion Heatsink for my CPU
Case - Thermaltake V3 Black
Fan setup - 1 CPU Fan , 1 back Fan both on Exhaust, 1 front fan 1 side fan on intake
All my fan's Are Xigmatek 120MM 1500 RPM fan's, tho since some are connected via external plugging, not the motherboard 3 pin, i cant control there speeds

Now beyond all this typing

My Temps
CPU - idle 33-32 on a hot day. 44-45 under full load while gaming
CPU Core - 44-53 under load, 35-36 idle

Basically what concerns me is the "core tempurature", Coretemp says my max core tmp is 90c, but i honestly dont know if my temps are decent, or if ive got an issue

i dont have any performance issues, slowdowns, or crashing so idk if im just stressing over nothing

It is summer here in australia, the average day is 23-26c with high humidity

Your temps are great. 80C is considered the max you should ever see under extreme conditions. 70C is considered very good. I am an integrated circuit designer and I use 70C as an average temperature. I simulate circuits up to 110C to 125C and make sure they work up there. You, running in the 50C area is really, really good. No worries in the slightest.
