Are these temps ok?

I have an amd 3800+ x2 windsor core stepping: 2 , Revision: BH-F2. My Vcore is 1.55 right now at 2.81 ghz as opposed to 1.34v at 2.0. My idel temp is 36-37 and my load temp is about 48. Is this Normal? Also the radiator is cool to the touch and not blowing out hot air.

My cooling:
Swiftech storm
MCP655
Black Ice GTX 360 with 6 fans
T-line
 
ok, I thought they would be lower because I had heard that it should be at ambient temp when idle.
 
No, you're never going to get idle temps at ambient. In a 22'c Room, the best I could ever get with a dual radiator, single CPU setup was 27c.

Especially at 1.55v Vcore! Heat Output increases with both voltage and cockspeed.

You might want to reseat your waterblock, however, with a bit less thermal paste. Since your Radiator is insanely powerful, and I've never tested it, I don't know how efficient it is.
 
i did reseat it, no difference and the radiator is never warm so i guess its doing a good job.
 
I think they are ok, I got a naked core and my temps are 33c idle 47c load with my system at 1.550, 3ghz, 23c ambient. Also depends if your running dual core or not.

Yes! Finally someone who understands the concept of COCKSPEED! Be careful with voltage around that thing though...

Looks good to me... as a matter of fact, I'm kinda envious! Guess it's time for me to pop the lid off my CPU.

great typo! Made me spray Dr. Pepper all over my LCD screen and phone! My co-worker ran in to see what the fuss was about... I showed him your typo.

He wants to meet you! :eek:
