Almost my identical system built last March. (2 serial HDs, better
graphics card). Used the Sonata case from Antec... it comes with a 120
mm exhaust fan.. (which I turned to blow air in to the case)
I installed a Zalman cooler on my CPU.. works great..
The one thing to make sure of is to properly clean and apply some
thermal grease.
I was concerned about removing the stock Intel cooler. Installing the
darn thing had me really worried about breaking the board, takes a lot
of pressure.. Anyway, I decided the stock Intel cooler was too noisy
and decided to go quiet with a Zalman so had the dealer take my Intel
cooler off and install the Zalman...
Wrong move. He (young kid) decided the old thermal paste was
sufficient.. When I ran my CPU at 100% for extended time the temp
would go up to ~55-60 C. Recently took it apart, found visible hot
spots on the CPU, cleaned it all and applied Arctic Silver. Now it
runs at ~38 40 C
Good luck, you will have a nice system!<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
