Re: Cooling problem

Case temperatures do matter, having good flow in and out can make a big difference in terms of stability and overclocking potential.
nffc your case is running a tad warm! a well vented case shouldnt go much more than ambient, mine sits around 25-28c most of the time.

As others have said check the temp of the heatsink physically, 56c is rather warm and suggests there is no problem between the cpu and heatsink so reseating it wont help
