    Yes you are ! Try using HWMonitor as well. But my advice is to clean the fans and reapply the thermal paste.

    Idle it should be around 30-35C at most and 65C-70C maximum at load.

    I think idle temperatures around 50C should be fine if you happen to be in a hot area. I'm not sure though.

    I still wouldn't consider it normal. I think those fans and vents need a dust out. ;)
