My i5 3570k Temps - Are they bad?

I haven't been able to get the thermal paste right and have reapplied it at least 4 times now. Currently at my best temps right now, I've been getting 58-62C while doing the Blend test on Prime95. My room temperature is ~78F. What do you guys think? This is without any OC, and I'm using a hyper 212 Evo..

Looks fine with me... with the Stock Intel cooler that should hit about 80C.

Oh man lol, I was told on Toms Hardware that I should never get over 50C at stock clocks, so I was all worried.

And yes, I'm using the 120mm fan.

50C is pretty normal and that's already low if you speak of load temps at a regular air cooler...
