What is the room temperature and what is the temperature of the chip in
Farenheit?
46 degrees sounds impossible to me - so you must be in another unit of
measure.

46c isn't unreasonable for a small case, and limited case fans, in a hot
room. 60c is the point at which I'd get worried.

That temp is quite normal.
