It depends on the processor.  IIANM, Athlons are rated up to 90C, but 
that is rediculously high.  I shoot for up to 50C for most Athlons and 
Durons, Athlon XPs seem to run cooler.  Last one I built ran at ~35C.  I 
just built a Pentium 4 2.66 Ghz, and it runs ~50C.  That is without 
aircon, outside temp probably 95F high humidity (Philippines is 
subtropical).  HTH
