Temp Issue

I wondering if 55c is to hot for a AMD 64 3500 Winchester Core? I ran toast for 12minutes. Idle it sits at 35c and load playing a game it hits like 50c. Its a AV8 Third Eye with a Zalman 120mm heatsink on it. The voltage is set at 1.475 in the bios and clocked at 2530 @ 230fsb at 11 multi. Can these temps be right i heard alot of people are reporting high temps with this board I think its a bios issue. Running at these temps the system is 100% stable thou. Is any body else having temp issues like this with the AV8 ThirdEye????

Well I don't know much about AMDs but if they are anything like P4s, that is slightly hot but nothing you should be too worried about.

i dropped about 15 degrees c when i got the zalman cnps7000 alcu hs/f on my p4.it would do wonders for any cpu with good thermal grease and correct installation.i also matched it up with a zalman vf700 alcu gpu hs/f on my x800pro.dropped arround 10 to 15 degrees c accross the board on my card.i thought that was pretty cool for a x800pro.my cpu and gpu with ambient temps at 65f to 70f they both idle at 25c to 28c depending on if my fan filters are clean or not.later
