X3 720 Temperatures with Scythe Mugen2 ok?

Currently overclocked at 3.3 ghz with 1.400v. It idles at about 41 degrees celsius and loads at 50 celsius. The core idles at 29 celsius and loads at 40 celsius. My room temperature is around 80 degrees fahnreheit or 26 degrees celsius.

Are these temperatures what I should be expecting? I only ask because I accidentally dented the heatsink slightly with an eyeglass screwdriver while installing it.
 
Why do you list two idle temps?? 😕 Which one is correct?

I can do 3.5ghz with my X720 @ 1.393v/1.275 north bridge and get a idle temp of 30 to 32c.

 
Looks good then for sure.

@ 1.40v you should hit at least 3,500 with a small bump up on north bridge voltage.

Finding stable voltage's past 3.5 is a real PITA on my 720.
