Show me your Temps..

Yes that would be high for inside a case. Maybe the probe is too close
to the CPU, GPU, or chipset. What do you think it's referring to?

56C is rather high for a case temperature, wouldn't you say? Hard
drives won't last very long at 56 C.

What the hell is "ambient temperature" in this context? It certainly
cannot be room temperature, unless you live in Al 'Aziziyah,
Libya...

I think that would refer to the temperature inside your case?

Standard Clock Speed
Ambient-25c
Idle-42c
Load-55c

Update,

By simply adding a 80mm fan at the front of the case blowing
back(pulling fresh air from slots in front of case) I dropped the idle
temp to 39c and load seems to stay under 50c.

So the fan only dropped your load temps by 5C?

Be sure to put a filter in front of the intake fan. It makes a huge
difference in dust buildup in my Lian-Li case.

The extra 80mm fan in the front of the case, yes, 5c, which is a lot
for a $3 fan IMO.
