I really would re-do the thermal grease application on that thing. Get some Artic Silver 5 on it. Mine runs hot on this setup compared to my old mobo supposedly, but I'm still trying to figure out if it's correct in the reading now. I would declare 65 as the top limit for spike usage and 60 as the constant max.

Also, I like to use large TFTs for stressing, but that's just me.
