Wow, that's extremely high. You should try reapplying the TIM. That reduced my temps by about 5ºC.

@OP: Idle temperatures don't matter much. 65ºC during load is considered pretty good. If you wanna go even lower you should try reapplying the TIM. Very simple procedure (take heatsink off, clean old TIM, apply new) and reduces temps by 2-3ºC on average.
