I have had a 5400black for a long time running stock speed. I got a little bored so i decided to bump it up. It is at 3.0 with 15x and stock voltage core temp .99.4 readings are at about 60c running prime raising to 63c but staying around 60c to 61c most of the time. Are these temps reasonable at this speed,and what is the safe limit for this cpu.
 
I've got a 7750 running at 3.25 and doesn't go past 35C...what heatsink are you running? I've got the Zalman 9700, love that thing.
 
if its a brisbane core.. the max temp is 72C if its a winsore core the max temp is 69C..

your temps are a little high though.. what voltage and HSF are you running?
 
the hsf is a thermaltake (dont laugh i was in a pickle) dont know what model.Stock voltage so off the top of my head something like 1.3. temps seem high to me its a Biostar a740g and it reads them closer to 30c at idle to 40c load and pc wizard is close to the same but the 60c was taken with coretemp.
