i had just finished a recent build and i'm getting 37c-40c, it has a stock fan and the room temperature is in the high 20's probably around 26-28c (i live in Australia). Should i be concerned? heres a link of my temps

I wouldn't be too concerned.
For better overall temps and piece of mind a decent cooler would drop temps significantly.

You'll need a case at least 7.5" wide to fit these coolers.
Otherwise use one of these if your case is under 7.5" wide.
