What PWM Temp Under 100% Load?

Im just stress testing my new clock settings and noticed in SpeedFan the PWM temp is at 57-58 degrees with alittle flame icon beside it. Searched on here (couldnt find anything directly relevant) and then google and it seems that these are safe up to temps of 65 degrees?

Ive only clocked my Q6600 to 2880Mhz using the following changes:

CPU Core 1.2725V (1 notch above stock 1.2625V)
Extrenal Clock 320Mhz (stock 266Mhz)
Multi x9
DRAM Speed (CPU : DRAM) 1:1.25 (stock 1:1.5)
PCI Express Clock 105Mhz (stock 100Mhz)

Core temps are all fine at 51, 51, 47, 49.

Anyone able to suggest a reason why the PWM temp is so high? Prime passed the 8K test and seems to be going fine on the 10k. But want to work this out before continuing clocking any further.

Thanks in advance!
 
Cool, will find some now then (know what size they need to be? i dont know the sizes of m6, m8 etc). Also do you happen to know the sizes of screws/nuts? Just so i can head straight to the motorfactors without pulling my pc apart first :)
