Check the internet for a review on your heatsink just because it's approved doesn't mean its good. Also I have found good case flow to make a huge difference, make sure none of your IDE cables are blocking flow. Exhaust fans seem to be more important than input. Cheap power supply's are really bad beacause they create alot of heat right over the cpu, I use an enermax that has a fan right over the cpu.
One final note AMD says the Athlon core is good to 95C so I wouldn't get to hyped up about it. True it probably will last longer if you get the temp down but then again not to many people keep the same CPU for more than a couple years anyway.
