Core i5 3570k safe temperature

[nine24]

my idle temperature for the cores on this CPU is 35

1600-2000 MHz

when load its around 60-65 degrees

using real temp to find out my temperatures. But is this safe i am not even overclocking and i would like to this in the future.

The stock fan (Intel) is what i am currently using.

a good rule, if it doesnt go over 80, you are good

Intel states that the max safe temp is 103C. After that dmg is casued to the CPU die.

Now under heavy stresstesting if you go above 90C, that is when you need to be worried. 65C is NOTHING to be concerned about on Ivy bridge.
