Oh, sorry for the noise! I read the specs again and now I see that the reported temperature on this processor is _not_ physical temperature. It is useful for comparison with Tctl_max, which is measured on the same scale. BTW, for this CPU family (Athlon II, 45nm, 65W), Tctl_max is 70C. -- Andriy Gapon
