AMD Phenom II X4 965 idles at 37C. Is this too high?

My Phenom II x4 965be idles around 37C. I have cool and quiet disabled in the Bios. Is this too high? I'm using a Scythe Mugen 2 cooler with Artic Silver 5 in a NZXT Lexa Blackline. Room temperature is about 69F.

It's good. What's your CPU voltage in the BIOS, you can lower that to 1.2-1.25V.

Not, it's fine for 965.

Your temp is just fine. Do you have good air flow in your case?

That's only 17 degrees above room temp.

Mine's at 49ºC and running @3.9Ghz, so I can say that yours is fine. I'm not doing anything besides lurking da internetz on Chrome. It hits 56ºC when playing things.

Hope it helps!

Cheers!
