Well for the perscot temp around 60 are concidered ok. But it also depend on the load on the system and the ambient temprature in the room. I can tell you my system(p4 2.4 HT rumnning up time 14hours) temp now is 34 for the cpu and 33 for the mobo ambient temp in the room is 25 and i do not have an AC.

It depends upon room temp and air circulation with the chasis.

For Prescott the range would be (40-60)
