V1200/Expert DD Block/High Temps

I just upgraded to a V1200 and my chipset is really high for some reason. Alot of my temps are higher than before. I was using a PC-65 clone case that was hacked to hell with barely any room in it. These are all idle temps...

Cpu Core: 40C
PWM: 43C
Chipset: 51C

And these sensors might be off by 8 degrees, because my opteron internal temp sensor is reporting 40C while my Mobo is reporting 33C.

I've heard of hot air being trapped in the rear/upper area of these cases and wondered if that was the problem. Is there a quiet solution could rid me of this problem?

I'm going to reseat the block and reapply thermal grease after I post this.

My loop is Pump->Rad->CPU->GPU->Chipset with 4 Yate Loon Fans. The parts are listed in my signature. The radiator is at the top of my case blowing air out and the rest of the fans are intake.
 
Reseating it fixed my problem. I guess I should of did that before I posted...
