Xeon Coolers?

OK. I work at a 3D Studio and we all work on Dual Xeon rigs. I built them all myself in CoolerMaster Wave cases. They have rather sucky air flow but I did not buy them... Anyways, we have 2 dual 3.06 systems and the fans Intel use are heat sensitive. BOTH of them start SCREAMING like Delta's when we are doing a render, and we render stuff almost 70% of the day.

We are looking for a solution to cooling those damn things off, and quit them down. The case itself gets hot and the air pumping out is also very hot. We work in a rather cool room and they have very good airflow around the cases, but these CoolerMaster cases dont have much ventilation.

My question is this. Is there ANY cooling solution's for Xeon? I mean ANY!!!!! I cant find a 3rd party heatsink/fan that will work on Xeon. Can something like a Koolance Exos handle the type of heat a duel Xeon 3.06 pump out? These things produce so much heat, we can cook brownies in the case!!!
