Hey guys,
Just wondering if you could give some input in regards to fan selection. My case (Cooler Master CAV-T01 Cavalier) has very :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty fans stock.
IDLE temps on a HOT day (i.e. > 30c) without the air conditioning on are around 50c. As you can imagine, load temps are pretty bloody hot. Around 81c to be exact. I'd like to lower this without having to rely on the air conditioning if possible. I'm using a Zalman CNPS7500-Cu LED to cool the CPU (E4400 @ 3.3ghz, 1.45ish vcore. Reducing Vcore to stock makes little difference for idle temps). The CPU has been lapped too.

Does anyone else have this case?

What would be a good start to reduce case temperatures? Most of us Aussies use PC Case Gear (http://www.pccasegear.com.au/) for our case supplies, including fans.
