What is the right temperature for Thunderbird?

[sradicator]

Whith a Qdi K7A (socket A) and a Thunderbird 800 (with a non certified fan cooler), m/b sensor says 50° (case closed, and after 1 hour of 3dMark2000). It's right or it's too hot?

my t-bird 800 PROCESSOR hits 49c after hard use. If you are saying thats your processor temp it seems ok to me. if you mean your motherboard temp you got a problem.

I have been told all external surfaces of componants in a computer shouldn't exceed 25 degrees celsius to be the absolute safest. Granted this can be hard to get without spending a little money on some good fans. If you want the absolute best fan that I have read reviews on try the Thermaltake Global Orb.
