Default What temperatures are bad?

I've noticed with this chevyno1 kernal for cyanogen rc2 I downloaded, my phone gets pretty warm. What temperatures are unsafe for a mobile cpu? I know 60 and above is bad for a desktop/laptop cpu, but I'm not sure if it's the same for cell phone's.

Well it depends, I've had mine get up to 135. The charger automatically shuts off at about 125 to 130 so it doesn't help to over heat it but also it seems to get a little buggy around 120 to 125. Normally the phone should shut its self down at a certain temperature also but you can set one you think is safe or precautionary if you don't like it that hot. Setcpu has temp safety settings where it'll either not allow the phone to operate passed a certain speed you specify once it gets to a certain temp. As far as bad I'm not sure but any overclocking will deminish the life of CPU just depends how fast you go and how hot you let it get. I ran chevyno1 4.6 and other roms but just switched to new sapphire rom using a 1 ghz kernel and haven't seen my CPU to go passed 110 yet. Its a very nice rom customizable fast and smooth.

Sapphire v1.0.0> 928Droid Black Glass Theme> Sholes 1.0 Ghz 7 Slot Kernel.

Somebody doesn't like the metric system...

I am only basing this on my phone and usage, I haven't gotten this data from anywhere; I am using a 7 slot 1.1GHz low-voltage kernel.

I have SetCPU to drop the clock from 1.1GHz to 900MHz when the CPU temp reaches 38 degrees C. I have it drop to 400MHz at 50 C, but have yet to reach that temperature.
