Recently i've upgraded my cpu cooler from AMD Athlon ii x2 245 2.9 ghz stock cooler to Cooler master hyper tx3 evo. I knew that wasn't a good idea by installing that cooler on AMD PHENOM II X4 955 BLACK EDITION 3.2GHZ since i just want to use it for a couple days while waiting for my CM HYPER TX3 EVO. While using that stock cooler, i've noticed that the temp was too hot(surely). But i does not check the temp. After upgrading to a new cooler, it cools my phenom ii x4 955 alot better. While downloading gta v on steam, i got around 46-49c(with my room's fan and air conditioner off). While playing pes 2017, i got 51-55c on high settings. Is it normal for my cpu which is not OC'ed? By the way my room temp is quite hot because i live in a hot country.

It should be quiet happy working at about 50c though it should be lower if at idle or checked in the bios temp monitor. 50c under load or a task is ok.
a x4 955 will work ok up to about 68c. be for it may complain about heat, or start to error.

So you still have about 18 more c to reach.

With the new cpu cooler you ordered Idle temps should be around the 40c mark.
