We need to know the idle and load temps.
However, 45C is about 113F, so yes it should feel rather warm at that temp. Also, the Seidon 120 is not the best cooler, you may notice that the tubing to the radiator gets rather warm.
I disagree with the above in the programs that were suggested. I recommend AIDA64 Extreme to stress the CPU as well as monitor the temperature. Once installed, drop down the Tools menu across the top, select System Stability Test, select CPU FPU Cache and System Memory, run the test for ten minutes, take a screenshot of the Statistics tab and post it here on Tom's.
In order to fit all the stats on screen at once, you may have to make the window taller.

I wasn't trying to say that you suggested bad programs, but rather that I simply don't trust two separate programs to do as good of a job as one program with both functions.

You'll be surprised how many people post here and don't come back to their post.
Although a lot of the time, it seems that posters just don't expect answers this quickly.

The CPU cooler only cools the CPU itself - if the case panels feel warm, that means that your case cooling in probably marginal or insufficient.
