Here is the setup as is:

MB: Asus A7S333
CPU: AMD XP 2000+ 1.6GHz
Heatsink: Thermaltake TR2-M3 @ 2600 RPM


So I just put this new heatsink (TR2-M3) on thinking it would fix a problem I was having before where the pc was restarting due to what I thought was overheating (the CPU temp. was hitting like 72-74 C). So after installing the new heatsink i boot into the BIOS to watch the temp. with the hardware monitor. The temp. started out at 40 C but kept climbing to 57-62 C.

From my experiences isn't that a little bit too high? Or is that normal for a setup like this?

High 50's and low 60's are not uncommon for that processor under full load, but it's definitely much too high when just watching from within the BIOS. The processor might be defective, or the heat sink and thermal grease are not installed properly.

what is NIB? I installed the heatsink correctly. I guess I'll just remove it to double check that the processor has the right amount of Thermal grease on it.

NEW IN BOX.
you only need a little bit, if you have a lot, you'll need to use some alcohol to remove it and any residue on both the HSF and the CPU before reapplying the thermal paste.
