As long as the temps don't go over 60º Celsius you don't need to worry.

Minimum temps really don't matter since the CPU will only be a cool as the surrounding air when the system is off. Maximum temp that an AMD CPU can operate at is 90C, but the system will exhibit heat related problems long before then. Try to keep the full load temps below 65C and you'll be fine.
