Temperatures Normal? i5-2500k Build

Last response: in Systems

I was wondering whether the temperatures of my new PC build are normal (specs listed below). I am running idle at roughly 29-33 fluctuating over each of my 4 cores, without overclocking. It can rise to around 35 if I'm browsing the internet and using Skype etc. During a Prime95 test, at full load without overclocking, I was sitting on 48-51 over 4 cores. Is this normal? During games I see 42-46 usually, on high graphics settings.

Specs :

i5-2500k
Hyper 212 Evo
Antec Three Hundred Two case (with two case fans)
HD 7850
Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3

Also,
XFX Core 550W Pro
A-Data 120gb SSD
Seagate 1TB Barracuda

GPUs can often handle up to 100C. Many reference designs on higher-end GPUs run up till 90C - and those are high, but not enough to kill a GPU.

So 63C on load is excellent value.

Awesome! That's incredibly re-assuring, thanks very much for your speedy reply :)
