I am concerned that the third temperature sensor on my board (tmpin2) is over 20 degrees higher than my other sensors. I believe this is the north bridge. Is it normal for this to be quite high. On idle it is 55 degrees whilst my processor cores average 38 degrees C.

You should check documentation for your mobo just to be sure, but I only start worrying once temps start going above 60C. You may want to invest in a chipset cooler in any case.
