Bios is a load temp, not idle. You'll only get idle temps after windows is fully booted and any startup services and processes are finished. Because there's a load, the VRM's are active with voltage regulation, higher than idle. More work = more heat.

Idle on my i7 pc is 32°C, ambient is 23°C, bios temps run 44°C.
Ryzen CPU's do tend to idle warmer than usual, and 37C is pretty good considering your higher than usual ambient temps. The chipset temps are to be expected with a high ambient temp and passive cooling.

But forget idle temps. Your load temps are really all you should be worried about. Run a CPU benchmark or stress test and if the temps stay below 75C you are fine.
