Yes it is normal.
However,for safety's sake,try and check the contact point between the cooler plate and the processor.
Hope this helped you.

and dont worry if it is 40 C ,my ambient here is around 35 and my pc always is above 40

Like mentioned, it really depends on the ambient room temp, and your cooler. In comparison, I have a h110 in a pull configuration on my 4790k and it idles around 32-34c(ever changing) across the cores with a slight non-voltage adjusted overclock. That's a much larger cooler than the h60. If you're overclocked can also be a factor in temperature. Also, where are you getting the temp from? In bios mine shows a lot higher temp than MSI Afterburner, CPUID, or any other monitoring software I've used.
