Safe? Yes. Hotter than average? I would say you need better airflow in your case but its nothing to get worried about.

Normaly my case is 29C and my cpu is 41C Idle, going up to about 34C/49C Under load, today my room is like an oven and my case is 35C Idle and cpu 47C.... so im gessing the weather aint helping much but am thinking of getting an artic pro to replace the stock cooler of my amd that should cool things a bit
