Load temps look ok but idle should be a bit lower. Do your clock speeds drop when at idle?
Can't remember if it's the high performance power plan or something else that keeps the clocks high, even at idle.

Mine is idling low to mid 30s, when gaming anywhere from 45-55c on average depending on load.
Check CPU Usage when idling and make sure nothing in the background is doing anything. Can use task manager.
RGB software and software like Amory crate etc can cause higher temps if running\installed

Same temps I'm getting on my aqua liquid 3 420 aio
Similar temps here...
Mine will settle at between 35-38c once the liquid temp normalises and when ambient is around 22c.
After a long gaming session it will idle around 38c and wont drop for a good 5 to 10 minutes it will then start to come down.
Gaming doesn't go above 60c - 420mm and 280mm external rad solution - Optimus CPU Block and Dual D5 on very low speed.
