On my Asus motherboard, P4P800,
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=13-131-492&depa=0

the CPU temperature is nominally 50C.

I am using the retail CPU heatsink with a 3.0E Prescott Pentium 4. I
have lapped the heatsink and used Arctic Silver 5 per the Arctic website
instructions. Antec case,
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=11-129-122&DEPA=0
with additional 120 mm fan for intake under front cover.

Is this temperature reasonable for the configuration?

Thanks in advance.

I have a P4P800-E Deluxe with a 2.8E Prescott, stock heatsink, fan,
using the thermal tape that comes on the retail heatsink. Mine runs
33C - 44C I don't oveclock, all "auto" setting in BIOS.

I have a 60 mm rear fan, 80 mm side fan blowing in, 80 mm front fan

Yes.

Bear in mind that a reasonable temperature, is simply one that is stable. It
doesn't really matter if your CPU is reading 68c - if all is 100% stable,
then all is well.
