http://forums.amd.com/index.php?showtopic=47430 The max die temperature for the Socket A is 85C so your temperature is ok (just a little on the warm side). Double check that the heatsink is applied correctly and that you didn't use too much thermal paste (if not using AMD stock).

Are you reporting this temperature from the BIOS or another source?
