Assuming your temp probe is accurate, yes that is high for an Idle temperature. I suggest you group up all your cables if they are strung about, to improve air flow. If that doesn't help, or you have already done that, try another heatsink (I recommend the Glaciator) and/or more case fans.
Also, be sure you don't have too much thermal paste applied, and that the CPU is mounted flush. Aslo, you might want to consider arctic silver if your not using it already. That about covers everything for dry cooling . . . .
