I think you're OK.  Mine sets off alarm beeps at 70C in hot weather, which 
seems to be max allowable temp.

During summer I remove the sides of the case and place a small desktop fan 
beside the computer. This noticeably reduces the temp to around 60-65C.

Currently (cool winter night) it's showing 2 items (I'm not sure what, I 
guess HD and CPU) at about 60C. A tad hot but within bounds from what I've 
read.
