85 or 90 C is the maximum die temperature of most Athlon processors.
You can find the exact specs on your processor here:

(Watch the line wrap on that URL, its a whopper)
The bios temperature readout is going to be more accurate than lmsensors.
I would verify the temp in the bios before doing anything radical.
