So I recently upgraded my stock cooler to an Anter Kuhler H20 620, and am very pleased so far. Idle temps are now 31-32 degrees idle instead of mid-40s. I have an AMD Phenom II x4 980 BE, so I decided to try a little overclocking. I ran Catalyst's auto tune, and it ran until 4.3GHz where I got a BSOD. Fair enough. I rebooted, and set the CPU to 4.2 GHz. Do these temps and stats look ok?
When my computer is idle, I get around 34 degrees, and max load with prime 95 for 15 or so minutes it was around 54-55 degrees, didn't see it go higher than 56 degrees.
It looks okay to me, but this is my first time overclocking so a second opinion would be nice.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Oh, and for anyone who doesn't know the 980 comes 3.7GHz stock.

Those temps are just fine. I believe max temp is 62C so you've got a little headroom. For most uses, your temps will be significantly lower than what they are running prime 95. Cheers.
