I would say it should be allot less around 48 load and 30 idle.
 
What is your case temp? Mine is 29C most of the time.

NVM :) just saw you have water...

Oh, are your waterblock and CPU lapped? I have both mine lapped and I'm at 28C idle and 45C load. Before I lapped I would usually have like 31C idle and 52C load.
 
That's not that bad for such high ambient temps. Those Core 2 Duos do fine up to the low 60's. I know those 680i mobos tend to run hot (N/B anyway) and those 8800 get pretty warm. Maybe you should improve case ventilation a little.
 
Looks like you are cooling just your CPU right?

How is your rad mounted? Inside the case or outside? Where is the air you are pushing through your rad coming from? Is it case air or air from outside the case?
