Dude!!?! You have amazing temps! Is it idle? if it is, then it's normal for a CPU to be at that temperature. An average cooler which uses the air around the PC cannot be cooler than the ambient air, and the CPU is already stressing a bit for keeping the system on, so don't worry.

uh... idle temperatures are rather meaningless, stress it to see the maximum temperature which is what truly matters.
