So I recently upgraded from a FX-6300 to the Intel side of things - the i5-4690k.

I got it all hooked up, updated drivers, and started playing Arma. Well while I was playing, I noticed that my CPU temperature was at around 37-38c, and my motherboard temperature went up to 40c. With my Fx-6300 the CPU Temp was always well above the motherboard temperature. Intel is all new to me, so I don't know if I should be worried. I know everything "INTEL" is better architecturally, and can withstand higher temperatures. I looked on ASRock's site under the Z97-Pro4, and it says, "Tested under industry standard 105 degree Celsius ambient temperature." What does that mean? Should I be worried?
