Those temps are fantastic.
Only start worrying when you get over 50C
I am currently running the same 1.33@1.486 anywhere in the mid 40s and up my system becomes instable. If i perform a power consumpting program while computer has been at rest for a while i can get thru it without a glitch as long as my temps are under 44 degrees 44 and up occasionally the system will crash or freeze up, so i would recommend keeping temps under 40 degress for best performance.
Depending on ambient, my highs range from 38-42C under full load. Set to 1507(11x137) gets up to 49C under full load. I'm keeping it backed off until I put my air conditioner in for the summer.

Strange, because my temps running @ 1.33 (not overclocked) were ~ 41 C, is this hotter than normal?
I will soon be getting Artic Silver and a case fan for the back of the case (right next to the cpu) for some better cooling.
thanx for help
