Unless it's like below like 17?F you should be fin I would think. But, maybe let it go above 40 to be safe. Your processor will run faster if it's cold, but other components may have some issues. But, why is your computer cold?

If it was really cold, and your home is warm/humid, you could have some condensation inside. I'd open the case and let it sit for a few hours.
