Make sure the heat sink is seated properly and has some thermal coating. Stock heatsink&fans aren't always the greatest but it shouldn't be getting that hot under loads unless you've heavily overclocked.

I'm using the oem heatsink and fan with my opteron 165 oc @ 2.7ghz. 85F at idle ~125F at extented max loads.

Zalmen's are good, but I check other things first, no reason for it to be that high.
