60 Celcius readings on 4 athlon MP's. Normal? I don't think so.

I picked up a few boards recently(Gigabite GA-7DPXDW's with AMD MP processors), and the two I tested insofar seem to be running 60 celcius (each CPU) at boot into bios. Now, I don't think that's normal. Also, cpu0 heats up faster than cpu1 on the test boards, which suggests a bios multithreading problem. The main issue here is, I've never cooled a multiprocessor system (the best I've got running now is a Sempron 3100), especially not AMD's newest server candy. I don't know if that's anywhere near normal for AMD MP's, and that's what I wanna know before I invest in some heavy duty cooling equipment.

Any help on this would be appreciated, and thanks in advance

Nevermind the above, I perused the stickys and now feel like a smacktard for not having done so beforehand.

(And for those who are wondering the same thing, 95 celcius is max operating temperature.)

Sorry for being redundant.
