Safe temps?

Just finished building my computer a minute ago. (phew). Now I'm in the BIOS waiting for my OS key. On the BIOS it shows the temp and my 4790 with stock cooling is around 59-60c on idle. Is it okay?

play a game and you can start cooking.

 

It´s a little very high for idle, but it may be a uefi bug

BIOS is generally showing temps that are higher than actual idle temps. Since you are on stock cooling, you would be looking at 42-50C idle with 22C ambient temps.
