90c and up is "bad" in the since that if might cause ramping, or shutdown the PC. Really anything over 80c is in the "start to worry" zone. Below that you are fine, unless you are trying to overclock and just squeeze every last bit of 100Mhz out of your system.

Im just using it for gaming, not really looking to overclock it, although i was installing a game and it reached temp of 85c due to the processor being 99% utilized, i immediately stopped the install.
