    100c for quads, and 85c for duals. One thing you gotta remember, is cpu's can handle alot of heat before any kind of damage, core 2 duos can handle heat up to 90c on load and work just fine, i have had a overclocked E6600 that ran really hot even at stock speeds, but the cpu never had one issue, also gpu's are another example, these things can handle 100c and up and nothing will happen, so really you should not worry if your temps are above 80c, as long as there is good amount of air flow in your case/room.
