As stated in the OTHER, duplicate thread.

Yes, those look about right except for the temperatures. You can't use "temperature" as a means of determining thermal compliance on FX series AMD processors. You need to download either AMD Overdrive or use Core Temp and go into the advanced options and put a check next to "Use distance to TJmax in thermal fields" so that you will see thermal margin.

Thermal margin is what AMD uses to determine thermal compliance. Not actual temperature. There is no accurate, meaningful CPU thermal diode used on those chipsets that can be used for determining a specific, accurate thermal reading. Any "temperature" you see is going to be misleading. Use thermal margin and you want to never see anything less...

Use thermal margin and you want to never see anything less than about 10°C distance to TJmax, minimum, under a full 100% load. At idle it should be more like 25-50°C distance to TJ max thermal margin.
