Default CPU temp

How do I measure the temperature that the Phenom x3 8750 that I just installed is running at???
And what are the accepted or normal operating temperatures?

Thanks

Use speedfan if you are worried. There is a better one but I cant think of its name for the life of me.

It should be somewhere in the 50C area. It depends on a lot of things... If its over 60, you have a problem.

Thanks for the help.
It says 50C so that is acceptable.
