(I'm assuming the bios or something is giving you these temps so since the shuttle doesn't have an external temp sensor in your room, ambient temperature is refering to the temp inside your case) - it won't matter how good your heatsink is, by the laws of thermodynamics, it can't cool down below 50c since thats the air its using to cool down - there's no where for the thermal energy to go.
