Your temp is perfectly fine with the vcore . You can try Linx which I think it make truly 100% stress your proc and hence getting the highest temp of your proc .

Yes for sure . More air hole and fan = more fresh air and better temp for sure . Since you already hav a aftermarket cpu cooler , it is a good choise to change for better case .

recommend u cm 690 II advanced

temp wise, not much u can do bout it
u can try lower the vCore cause i think 3.2 dun nid that much .
mine last time 3.6 required 1.45v and it loads around 67C on WC

its still in the safe zone so no worry .
get a better casing for better flow .

haf 922 or 932 are good cases IMO. bigger space that can accommodate almost anything (of course except SR-2), and has a good cable management at the back of the mb tray.
