Safe CPU termperature range?

[Cone Drone]

Hey guys just completed a new build and I've had some issues, first i went into bios to see my cpu running at 60C, I then reseated my heatsink and played forge for about 10 minutes, I went back and my cpu was 52C. What is my next move? Thanks. (Intel Core i5-3570K 3.40GHz (Ivybridge) with Alpenfohn MSI Civetta)

I just installed coretemp and it maxed at 105

Yeah I see that now, all cores running between 35-40 idle.

I reached 81C when I ran prime 95 and turned it off at that point didn't want it to run any higher.

Not oveclocked, I'm considering getting a new heatsink, anyone else got any experience with "Alpenfohn MSI Civetta" I'm starting to think this is why it came free with the mobo.

Nah I don't have a stock one because I bought OEM.

Can anyone suggest a good after market heatsink?

Well I still need to get speakers and a decent screen so the cheaper the better really but you get what you pay for, so 30-50 range really.
