Yes thats fine although a little high if at stock speeds. My 2500+ is at 2.3gig and never hits 50 although it does hover around 48 - 49 under full load.

Just an observation and I don't have stats to back this but I think the number one killer is trying too hard to keep temps low and breaking something in the process.
That CPU running at 50C under load is fine!
