My CPU(i7 10700k,,,,) is running at 60 to 64degree celcious ,, is it normal ..i google it and it says under full load CPU temperature of i7 10700k should be 50 to 65degree celcious .

but i not even using it at half load,, so what's the problem here?

60 to 64°C under what conditions ... idle? "Half load? Doing what?

"Full load" is a popular but non-specific user term which could mean anything, so unless it's defined, the term "full load" is very misleading. Since software varies widely, as well as the workloads and Core temperatures they produce, it's important to be very specific about exactly what "full load" means...
It is anyone's guess if there is a problem or not with how little information you are providing.
Taking Google at face value is also 'wrong'. It depends:
-cpu cooler[I trust you mounted it correctly...]
-room ambient temp
-chassis ambient temp
-gpu
-chassis model and fan setup
-what you did, or are doing, to get that result
^All that comes together to complete the puzzle, of which you posted like 1/10th of.

cpu cooler >>> cooler master H410R
room temp>>> 36 degree celcious
chassis ambient temp>>> HOW to find It?
gpu>> intel UHD 630( i don't have any extra grafix card)
chassis>> Aigo Darkflash Leo (mid tower)
i am useing (CPUID Hwmonitor) software to monitor temperatuer ,Frequenct etc.

Have you tried checking the mount of your H140R? High idle processor temps usually is caused by poor mounting pressure, coupled with very fast spikes to even higher temperatures that don't stabilize quickly. An AIO should exhibit more stable temperatures than an air cooler would.

Edit: I mistook the H140R for an AIO. Definitely check your mounting pressure. A bit of temps fluctuations are fine on an air cooler, your idle temps however sounds high.

If you do need to remount the cooler, check if the thermal paste is still good underneath it, and that the paste is evenly spread on the processor. Most people would say to repaste when you open the cooler, but in my experience a quick look down there and putting the cooler back on doesn't seem to matter much. Can't hurt, just won't do much.
 
cpu cooler >>> cooler master H410R
H410R is rated for UP TO, but not exactly 100w of heat.
10700K is rated for up to 229w, under Intel stock settings, and even higher than that when running any kind of 'performance modes'.
This cooler is more appropriate for a 10100 or a 10300, but not a 10700K. You didn't spend enough in this area.

room temp>>> 36 degree celcious
chassis ambient temp>>> HOW to find It?
Chassis ambient will always be warmer than the room ambient. So if the room is 36C, it wouldn't be unusual for the chassis ambient to be a few degrees higher or more.
To find it would be to use a small thermometer or digital thermometer inside the chassis(closed) and position the bulb or sensor in front of the cpu cooler's fan for a few minutes.

gpu>> intel UHD 630( i don't have any extra grafix card)
Ok.

chassis>> Aigo Darkflash Leo (mid tower)
That also looks ok. It's not a hot box at least.

i am useing (CPUID Hwmonitor) software to monitor temperatuer ,Frequenct etc.
Ok, so what did the earlier thermal report come from? Just idling off the desktop and browsing?


TL;DR: You spent too little on the cooler... or it could also be said that you bought too big of a cpu.
A more affordable cpu should have offered more financial leeway towards a stronger cooler, leading to an overall better balance.
 
A good place to start is watch the review of people like hardware unboxed.But it all depends on cooler.Example would be that my cpu witht eh stock cooler ran 81c in gaming(ryzen 5 2600)with my aio it goes max to 51C(it''s summer here)and today did video convertions 3-5 at a time which push the cpu to the max and it topped out at 64c.

It all depends on cooler/workload etc.65 isn't that bad consider they only thermal throttle i think at 95c or 105c can't remember.

Since software varies widely, as well as the workloads and Core temperatures they produce, it's important to be very specific about exactly what "full load" means.

The definition of "full load" is a steady-state 100% TDP workload. In real-world applications, software for rendering or transcoding can produce peak workloads close or equal to a 100% TDP workload. The equivalent in a stability stress test is the Multi Core test in CineBench R23.

It's very likely that what you found on Google was "gaming" temperatures, which might be valid when running the i7-10700K under high-end cooling at normal ambient temperatures. Regardless, gaming is not "full load".

As Phaaze88 has already been pointed out, the Cooler Master H410R, which is a just a variant of the Hyper 212 EVO, is a seriously weak cooler for a high-end CPU such as the 8 Core 16 Thread i7-10700K. Your cooler is only adequate for a 4 Core processor, but not a 6 or 8 Core processor. You definitely need to double your cooling capacity. Upgrade to a big-air cooler such as the Noctua NH-D15 or a 280mm AIO.

36°C ambient (room) temperature ??? Are you sure? Did you mean 26°C?

36°C is 96.8°F, which is an extremely hot environment for running any computer systems. The International Standard for "normal" ambient temperature is 22°C or 72°F.

Here's the temperature conversions and a short scale:

If 36°C is really correct, then you're 14°C above normal, so all your PC internal temperatures and components are also running 14°C above normal. When you combine a weak cooler on a high-end CPU with such a high ambient temperature, you can expect the 10700K the reach "Throttle" temperature (100°C) quite quickly, even under just moderate workloads.

Here's the nominal operating range for Core temperature:

Core temperatures above 85°C are not recommended.

Core temperatures below 80°C are ideal.

Please confirm your ambient temperature, and once again, welcome aboard!.
