BTW... temps for you...
Fan on high 34C idle
Fan on low 36C idle
Fan off 48C and sloooooooowly rising
Air cooled w/ crazy fans everywhere, 50C idle. 
... I'm using a huge econoline heater core, but it is mounted well inside my case. If it had any air flow through it, my temps would be in the low 40's. I've got a 24V comair fan @ about 9-12v now, ..still a little noisy. I'm thinking of switching to two 120mm panaflos @ 7v, or perhaps one 120mm and one 80mm fan. Use the 120 while gaming, and the 80mm just to keep air moving while i'm studying. My IBM 60gxp's are still the noisiest part, even moreso that the comair at 12v.
