Don't worry about that temperature, it can run much hotter without damage

Yeah, no real probz. Just for comparison, my laptop goes up to 70 degrees Celsius when working hard, and that is completely normal

wholy shit, that's hot. yeah, i guess i feel better now knowing that. i've just never have had any of my processors in the past idle like that. even my single core athlons in the past and my opteron would idle around 35-38, even in a fairly warm room.

40° is probably the max temp, you can look up that info in the manual
a good cooler is a better solution than looknig for paste in your case IMO
passive coolers are preferable for DAW's (no noise), for about >50€ you can get some very decent material:
noctua
or "ZALMAN" has also some good stuff
I am a happy noctua customer

laptop processors are designed to run at such temperatures, so 70° would not be healthy...

wow man, thanks for the tip on those noctua's. i see they sell them at newegg.com where i religiously buy pc components so i'll feel quite safe buying one there. i'm looking at that nh-c12p model thinking that may be closer to what i would need. seems it's got pretty descent reviews too.
