For 24/7 temps, like folding, I wouldn't go above 65, but I'm pretty conservative when it comes to temps. As long at it doesn't stay at 75-80, it's fine. What's your voltages like?

Those temps look fine, though a bit high. What about the i7 at idle?

If it were my chip I'd try to keep it at or below 65C. Mine's running at 58C right now so I'm going to dial up the OC a bit next week when my fans get here.
