What can be considered to be normal and dangerous temps for motherboards? Also, what do TZ00/01 and TMPIN0/1/2 refer to?

My HW Monitor readout: http://i.imgur.com/U1u34Ur.png?1

Value tab corresponds to idle temps, Max tab corresponds to temps seen when running a 15-minute benchmark that puts the GPU under 100% load. Ignore the Min temps as that was when the PC just booted up from cold.

What is typically considered to be normal idle temps? When do you need to start getting worried?

Based on the above HW Monitor read-out, is my motherboard temps OK for when under full load and when idle?

Also, which of the five components actually correspond to my main motherboard temperature? There are five listed: TZ00, TZ01, TMPIN0, TMPIN1 and TMPIN2. I have a feeling TMPIN 2 corresponds to the CPU temp, as they are alwas very similar. But I have no idea what the rest refer to.

Thanks!
