That's not really a good air vs water comparison. You'd have gotten similar results if you swapped for a better tower cooler as well. The stock coolers are basically built to cover base clock and a bit of turbo.

Yeah with a CoolerMaster Hyper 212 and a single fan I get idle of 40-45 and a high of 76 and I tend to run with fans set to be mostly silent. With a bit of a noisier experience I seem to recall idle was under 40.
