What is considered a good temp for a CPU to be running before it is
considered too hot?

I understand that anything past 50 celsius is too much ...

Are you running the retail heatsink & fan with that 2800?

Every CPU is different. You should find the spec/data sheets online for the
processor in question. For example, Original Athlon XP's and the Pentium 4's
with the Prescott core run very hot, while Celerons, amd durons and others
run cool.

Intel:
http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4...htm#datasheets

AMD:
http://www2.amd.com/us-en/Processors...82_739,00.html

Example, my AMD Opteron 148's max CPU temp is 70C. With my Zalman
heatsink/fan, I rarely go above 50C even after a few hours of Doom 3. If
mine goes above 55C, I start looking for new cooling solutions (but that's
just my personal preference.) My motherboard allows me to set alarms when
temp thresholds are reached.

Yes but I have 8 fans in my machine. One of them blows down on the pc fan
also.

WOW! That is *WAY* too hot for a 2800+ at idle. There is definitely a
problem with your system.

45 Celsius at idle with 8 fans? You really have a major problem with your
system I am running an AMD64 3200+ with 2 fans and it idles at 34 Celsius
and runs 43 Celsius at peak when online gaming.

You need to take a serious look at your system...there is definitely a major
problem somewhere...with 8 fans, I suspect your airflow pattern is whacked
and the hot air is not being moved away from the proc. If that is not the
case, then you have other serious issues.
