ok, got my P4 I won up and running and got to playing with it. Well I know they run hot but what would be to hot. I'm currently use the stock fan/heat sink.

58C under a good load sounds about right. They are indeed a bit warm, but operate just fine at those temps.

Those temps are safe for the Prescott core.

As stated above = don't worry
you might be able to lower your vcore from stock!
This will lower your temps a little if your concerned
(just don't go too low)

58C under load is good for a Prescott P4; is that with stock cooling, didn't see it specified; and oh yeah, did you use Arctic Silver 5? Because that thermal compound rocks, as it keeps the core a lot cooler than standard thermal grease.
