Indeed...36 at idle i believe is about the average "most" users get, of course it depends on the room enviroment and the case design intself etc etc also

The BIOS isn't idle, you often see lower temps in windows than in the BIOS, so 36 degrees is fine
Especially with it being so warm at the moment.

Mine is happily sat on 39 @ idle (i.e. now !) and that is with a pretty decent (25%) overclock......
