Technically, temperature below 39C is a super condition.
 From 55C to 60C is alerting zone, which is OK working condition.
The maximum temperature depends on each CPU specification,
which can be from 60C to 79C. Older CPUs may have a lower limit.

Yours is OK, and the CPU seems your CPU has an auto shutdown
mechanism on temperature. Newer CPUs more or less have similar
mechanism to either slow down or shut down as temperature passing
the altering zone.
