65c CPU temp too much?

[cheesy_iron]

I was just playing minecraft and i started lagging really bad. Ok, shut the game off, restart it. Good, 1 minute later, really bad fps drop. 60+fps down to 5-10fps. I feel my pc and its frying. 65c cpu temp. I use folding@home or somthing like that. It uses my cpu to find cures for diseases and such. That always makes my cpu run at 80% load. I just shut that program down and now im back at 45c, thats my regular temp when idle. Did this high temp damage anything? My cpu: AMD athlon 640 X4 3ghz. With some cheap thermaltake cpu cooler.

Reapply thermal paste and post your temp. Your cpu is overheating dude

No damage. The cpus will run fine up to 70c, and some will reach 90c without any damage for brief periods of time. I would check craigslist for a better cooler or order a hyper 212 or similar 92-120mm heatsink. Here's one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233081

Well i guess that my pc always runs at 60c idle. Its because the folding@home program that i have always running. Im not going to run that program anymore. Im doing a complete overhaul this June or July. Ill definetly get a new cooler then aswell. Thanks for replies.
