I just got my system running perfectly today at stock speed which is normal but the temps seem a little high. My MSI K7T Turbo says that at stock speed my temps are 47 idle and 48 Max. the thing goes up one degree. At 900mhz my temps are 58 idle and 60 Max. This seems to high. What should I do? What are the speeds that are possible with this processor. By the way my Vcore seems to max out at 1.8. Is there a way to increase it?

i would have clocked it back down to default speed...

60c is just to high to run it safe. Leave it at default until u get a better heatsink

I've found the problem. The thermistor under the cpu or more like how it was set up on my MSI board us off by 10 degrees meaning if it says 40 then it's 30. I made sure by letting the pc cool down til it was no lomger warm than i booted it up and guess what, it was 40 while my system temps were 26. Back to the store again to change my board.
