IMO it's bad. Not too bad, in that it will continue to run at that
temperature (obviously), but that temp will degrade it faster, so rather
sooner than later the CPU will fail. FWIW, the CPU on this box is
running at 55-56C.

Best,

Thanks everyone who tried to help...

Turns out the thermal paste had given up and needed replacing... So I
did that.. Then I broke the pin holding the sink to the motherboard so
That's getting fixed
I use SETI to run the CPU hot.. seems to work well at that

More as I know more
