Hey guys take a look at these temps would you

My case is an Antec 300 and CPU cooler is a Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B. These temps is with prime 95 running in place large FFT (highest heat setting) for an hour. Room temp is ohhh I dunno 70 degrees. I know they are a little high but this is with the top blow hole fan unplugged. For the life of me I can not find a 140mm fan that is quiet enough. So right now the only fan I have running is the rear blow hole fan. That has a Scythe S-FLEX SFF21D. I would love to 2 more. One to have blow over the hard drives and the other to put on the top blow hole. Thing is I have barley enough room to get a fan in and all the adapters i see are thick and will not fit (CPU heat sink is right there). So after that wall of text my questions. First, is there a slim line adapter for the fan? If no would a 2nd fan on the CPU heat sink be enough to keep it cool? As in a push pull? Would the S-FLEX SFF21D be okay for that? Also, is it ok my only intake fan is blowing over the hard drives? When I have the top fan plugged in my temps where like 10 degrees lower then they are now and thats with out any intake fans.


Thanks! also as of right now i'm at stock speeds but when my CPU starts to bottle neck me i do plan to OC a bit. Just an FYI


Thanks guys :)
