assuming it is reading off the internal diode that my be a little high, but you're probably not going to get much less than 15 degrees above water temp. Though I havn't had personal experience with the XP athlons, jumped straight from a classic 1.2T-bird to the 1.8a P4.
here's a tip, boot up to bios and play with the tension on the water block bolts untill you get the lowest temp, sometimes the waterblock can look flat on the core but may in fact be tilted ever so slightly.
