Is it normal for a CPU temp to jump around between 45 and 60 degrees?

Right now my Intel Core i7 950 keeps jumping around between 45 degrees and 60 degrees Celsius. It doesn't stay on a certain temp with just maybe a change of 1-2 degrees c. I check these temps with Speccy and Speedfan. The tower has been cleaned of its dust just a week ago. I don't understand why these temps are so high. It has always been around 45-50 degrees c. Never 25 or so. I should probably check if I can improve the temp with better fans, I suppose. My PC is located inside a cabinet a bit. It is an open cabinet and we made a hole in the back for the warm air to escape. Perhaps there are some errors with the fans. I don't even know much about this system myself. On Speedfan it only shows the CPU0 and CPU fans working at 1480 RPM. The others are at 0 such as Sys Fan, Aux Fan 1, 2 and 3 and the Chassis 1, 2 and 3 fan. No idea what all these are considering there are only around 3 or 4 fans inside this case. The powersupply fan, the heatsinkfan and 1 or 2 others located on case openings. Perhaps applying some new thermal paste on the CPU could also do wonders. I just don't like doing that since you can mess it up pretty badly. I've done it twice. Only once successful. I suppose it is at a safe temp right now. Although 45-60 degrees c is way too high for just working with Adobe Animate and some stuff on the internet like Youtube music.
