Hi, I recently built my computer (Wouldn't boot found out I need to reinstall my OS etc.) I'm wondering what is the ideal idle temp, or a relatively safe idle temp. for the Phenom II? I've looked online and people say its safe up to 62 degrees. I let my computer idle in the BIOS until the temperatures leveled out. In the motherboard bios the CPU temp. was 44 degrees Celsius. Too me that seemed high for it to be idling but I don't know how much it'll actually increase under load. Does that seem normal to you guys or a little high?
