You sure you don't have those two temps reversed? An idle CPU temp of 53C is way too hot. If that is, indeed, your CPU temp, your heatsink is probably not making good contact with the CPU. Best to remove it and carefully reinstall it, making sure to follow the instructions in the mobo manual. The heatsink should be tightly locked down and applying pressure to the CPU.
