Those are idle temps Get a few gaming hours in while leave while leaving cpu z and realtemp open in the back ground i think youll see around the 50's while hardcore gaming which is still good for stock speeds.
 
AMDs temp sensors are normally way off.

CPU Core temps are usually way off. I usually see what the mainboard sensors says, add a degree and use that as the actual core temps.

On average on the AMDs I've had they've under-read by between 17-19 degrees C.

So based on that I'd hazard, using 19°c as the offset, his temps are:

Idle: 32°c
Gaming/Load: 49°c (ish)

Which would be about right IMO.

Some monitoring software such as Open Hardware Monitor & Aida64 allow you to edit the sensor offset to add these values.

Check your temps using HWMonitor. That's the only program I really trust for monitoring.

A HAF932, that's old school.
.

I used to own one, and let me tell you that thing was horrible. Huge, ugly, and full of dust. No cable management options either.
 
Yup a 932 it has done me proud and paid for itself so many times cable management Is a bit of a pain but if you work with it dust can be a pain in the *** sometimes but same with a lot of vented cases like this
