Are these temps normal?

Kind of new to the whole temperature thing with computers here and want to be sure I'm not doing something wrong here but these temps seem a bit too high for the parts and case that I'm using with the idle temps. Let me know what you guys think, thanks!

Room Temperature fluctuates between 70°F/21°C - 74°F/23°C

Idle Temps and parts are:
CPU
Intel Core i7 4790K @ 4.00GHz (No Turbo or OC) - 82°F/28 °C
Motherboard
Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. Z97X-Gaming 5 - 89°F/32 °C
Graphics
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 ACX 2.0 FTW (EVGA) - 84°F/29 °C
Storage
111GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 120GB (SSD) - 93°F/34 °C
3726GB Seagate ST4000DX001-1CE168 (SATA) - 89°F/32 °C

Cooling Setup is:
Case: Corsair Air 540 with 5 case fans, 1 CPU fan - 2 in front for intake, 2 on top and 1 on rear for exhaust.
Heatsink: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo using a Noctua NF-P14 FLX (140mm) Fan instead of stock. Using Noctua's NT-H1 Thermal Compound.

GPU is standard heatsink that came with card, thermal compound has not been re-applied. Also using MSI Afterburner for fan curve to keep idle and load temps lower.

They look OK to me. That's not the coolest-running CPU in captivity and you have it idling under 30 in average ambient temps. Load temps are far more important anyway.

You're fine.

But yeah load temps are watch you should look at, for idle it looks normal to me.

Load with Non-OC/Turbo temps hit about 75° C for CPU, which I'd rather not even attempt OC/Turbo if they're hitting those temps at load.

GPU benchmarking on high end games (Witcher 3 & Shadow of Mordor,) hit up to 60° C with fan curve via MSI afterburner and without up to 79° C
With CPU temps at 45° C & Motherboard temps at about 42° C

Anything else I could do to maybe improve with these or are they fine?

Thanks!

Yeah those temps actually seem pretty good, unless mine are considered high? Just checked some of my physical systems for comparison:

Server room ambient temp: 24.8125°C

File server: (Xeon cpu)

Code:
[root@isengard ~]# sensors
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:       +27.8°C  (crit = +106.0°C)                  
temp2:       +29.8°C  (crit = +106.0°C)                  

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Physical id 0: +42.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)  
Core 0:        +42.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)  
Core 1:        +41.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)  
Core 2:        +40.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)  
Core 3:        +42.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)

(not sure what temp1 and temp2 is, motherboard I think?


Environmental control server: (Atom cpu)

Code:
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +50.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  
Core 1:      +50.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

VM server: (Xeon cpu)
Code:
System Temp		27 degrees C
Peripheral Temp		33 degrees C

Considering those are server temps, I guess my temps aren't too bad after all then .

Any other advice is much appreciated. Thanks for the responses and help!
