The BIOS is usually fairly accurate enough, anyhow the disclosed maximum operating temperatures for your D 840 (3.2GHz) is 69.8°C according to Intel.
Note: The Pentium D temperature specification indicates the maximum cover temperature, which is typically lower than the temperature reported by the internal thermal diode. Therefore, your system may be running fine even if the reported "CPU temperature" in the BIOS is higher than the temperature specified above.
