my comp cpu is running at 59 C idle with a 51 C system temp. I have a thermaltake 800 (I think) as a heat sink. It doesn't seem to be enough. I want it to run a little cooler. It seems to have enough airflow in and out of the computer.

Any suggestions? What about water cooling? will that just reduce my cpu temp, not just system?
 
Maybe a Thermalright SLK-800?
Might need a better fan on top of it but with your case temp being 51C it really isnt going to get much better. What are room temps just for comparison?
 
Don't worry man your temps will go down in winter. Mine is up too have SP-94 but idles(not really idle... TV on comp is on 24/7) 41-50 C I'll be watercooling it tho this summer so I can play far cry without my temp alarms goin off.
