I have a 1.4ghz Athlon system I just built and when I look in the bios at the CPU temp its around 60C!!! Isn't that kinda high??? I have tried both a Thermaltake VolcanoII AND a GlobalWin FOP38 with the samer results. What should the Cpu core voltage be?? I'm looking at Sandra and it says 1.85. Should it be 1.75????Same thing in Bios. Temps at 61.4C at the moment-holding steady -seems high from the many other posts whose temps are between 40c and 50c. Any suggestions??

You could probably stand to lower your voltage a bit...or consider some really good cooling (Glaciator or the like). Your temps are definately high..especially if they're not load temps. It also depends on your room temp and case temps.
