40's. They should never go past 60 or they could make errors.

35-40 idle, low 40 Max with system board temp of 24 is good on a XP OC to 3200+ running 200 FSB and
2250 clock.

Was afraid of that, for me it's iddling at 60 in the desktop (CPU diode
temp in mbm)

That's pretty high. Another data point: my Athlon XP1700+ in an Abit
NF7-M, not OC'd, runs in the mid-40s at idle during the winter months
and 50-51 during the summer months. The board temps are usually between
27-32, again depending on season. These are as reported by Winbond
Hardware Monitor; the machine runs 24/7 and has been running at these
temps for over five years with no problems. This is with the OEM
heatsink and fan that came with the CPU - I keep meaning to upgrade, and
in fact have a new Cooler Master still in the box, but have never gotten
around to doing so.

Sometimes MBM shows you the wrong sensor. Maybe you can download a
program for your motherboard from its manufacturer or check in the BIOS
for the cpu temperature, then find one in MDM that matches.

I have two systems. Both are +2000 XP Athlon's. One has multiple drives
with extra cooling, and stays around 40 deg. C while the board runs 32 deg
C. The other has less drives, less cooling and runs a bit higher.
