Cpu heat is it ok or not

[Ajith Cool12]

Hi guys. my cpu is core i7 2310. It is 2 years old and stock heat-sink gave rise to 97 C heat in prime 95 and 57 idle.
So i bought a antec a20 heatsink now temp in prime 95 is 71 c and idle is 37 c. Is these new temps ok. is this a upgrade worth. the heat sink cost me 13 USD $.

Room temp - 32.6 C

My other specs
Asus gtx 750 ti
Corsair 4 gb ddr3 ram
intel dh67bl mobo
corsair vs 450 psu
500 GB seagate baracuda
3 case fans
