Looks not bad, but I would checked it during good compilation, using all
cores.

Just to compare, my Core i7-870 with boxed cooler reports:
 31C being idle with tuned power management,
 53C being idle without any power management,
 85C during `make -j16`.
That system did `make -j16 universe` in about 3 hours AFAIR.

PS: AFAIK dev.cpu.0.freq won't report you if frequency was lowered due
to overheating.
