After recently purchasing two 290x at $100 discount to drive my 4k monitor for gaming, I realized my top card is throttling at full load target temperature 85 degrees celcius even at 100% fan speed. I currently am using this case:

with the stock fans but no side fan which is optional. I am wiling to spend more money to get a cooler system but only if its worth it. So I figure I have these options with related questions.
1. Buy a side case fan to cool down GPUs. But will it be enough? Might it screw up the airflow and make things worse?
2. Pay for some sort of water cooling setup which I know very little about. How much would it cost me and how do i go about getting it done?
