Hi. I'm using an iMac with a 2.0ghz C2D, and when I run something that uses around 90% of the processors my two cores are hot reaching around 70-80 degrees celcius.... They've never gone beyond 80 though... Is this normal/good???
Thanks.

It will shut off if it gets too hot. There are plenty of fans in there. You're running at almost full processor capacity, of course it's going to run a little hotter.
