CPU nominal temp

[Burgerbob]

I have an Athlon 64 Venice 3200+ (like half the ppl here) and i have the stock cooler. What is a good temp for it to idle at?i usually have it at around 85 fahrenhiet, and at full load, 102 at the top. I have 5 case fans, three of them blowing almost directly on the CPU fan. I have the fan on top doing the exhaust, so thats not a problem. I just wonder if these are good temps. Any help is appreciated.

Consider a insane heatsink w/fan if you want to overclock, if not, than the stock cooler is just fine.
