Chipset running at 69C- Bit concerned...

[Markgixer6]

I'm new to O/C, so just want some advice here. I'm running My AMD 64 X2 3800+ at 215Mhz and have rampted the x1800Xt's up to max on the ATI overdrive panel. The cards seem fine, as they both have accellero 2 cooling units. The CPU doesn't go above 40C really, but the chipset is running at 69C after playinf fear. I do have a cooler fan on the chipset, but I'm a bit worried that 69C is excessive.
Will this be ok, or should I reduce the CPU or graphics OC to preserve the chipset? What is a safe chipset temp?

Thanks
Mark

How embarrasing... The chipset lead had come unplugged from the board. OOOPS! It's now running about 10C cooler. The strange thing is that smartguardian still says the fan is not running, but I can see it is. Oh well...
Thanks for the advice Snowdog.
