Default What would you say is a high temp for the northbridge

Hey all

I have an Asus P5k VM. I have a thermaltake TMG I2 cooler on my cpu. Everytime I up the rpms on it, my northbridge temp rises. Usually it sits about 48c, but when i have the coolers fan all the way up, it sits at about 55c. Is this 55c a bit too high. It has just the stock cooler on it.

Thanks very much to whoever helps

I honestly don't know but that seems at the high end of acceptable. I have had a few that reached 50C but never above that I always add a better heatsink or a fan.
