Your temps are perfectly fine. If you check the i7 Overclocking thread you will see most people like to stay under 85c when stress testing. These chips are the hottest things on the market....literally.
3.6 is easy money even with everything on auto and just changing your BCLK. The best way to keep your temps down while overclocking is keeping your vcore low. Mine is at 1.29v at 3.8 and I am getting Prime 95 temps under 75. 21x181. Good Luck! EDIT: Your room gets to 40c? Thats 104f....WoW

Like Shadowclock said, keep it under 85C when stressing. The i7 runs hot, mines could hit 88-90C running at 4.4 with 1.46v under the TRUE. Can't really compare the C2D/Q temps to an i7, anything under 70-80 when OCed and under full load is pretty good.
