That seems like it could be about right

I have the P5Q Pro. My idle NB temps with the stock heatsink were around 40c with no OC, and around 48c with my Q6600 @ 3.0ghz. It peaked at close to 70c while running prime95, was way to high for me. Replaced the NB with a Thermalright HR-05 SLI/IFX and it dosent go over 55c under load.
