CPU temps

So odd situation I never encountered. My CPU temps have been a bit warm for my liking since I built this pc (idle at 80c) with my stock intel cooler. Now here is the weird part. I just ran a cpu stress test because I wanted to see if my temps rise and they dont rise too much when gaming. But here is where the weirdness comes in, after the stress test my CPU started running cooler by a lot. Now it runs at 50-60c when idleing and under load doesnt go higher then 78c. So what's the deal? Wondering if I should be concerned.

I use cpu real temp or whatever it is called as well as afterburner. Only use both cause I wasnt sure if afterburner was giving me right temp so I verified with the second application. My cpu is an intel i7-3770.
