I am wondering what sort of temperatures the CPU for an AMD Athlon 3000xp should be running at.

I am currently running 39'c-40'c under no stress and 46'c-47'c under stress.
The reason i ask is I have just installed this after having a 1800xp and just wanted to know what others get on it.

My 3200 is about the same. For whatever reason the temperature has really been fluctuating, some days it stays in the mid 30's under load and other days low 50's under load. Maybe I didnt put the thermal paste on well.
