Looking to upgrade my stock fans to a more high-powered rate of airflow, for cooler temperatures. I currently have a Rosewill Stealth case, with 2 in fans and 3 out (1 back-side - 2 top-side). One of the out fans (topside) is put in by me, and it's a 120mm Fractal Design Silent Series R2 (SSR2) rated at: 1200 +/- 10% 40.6 CFM || 15 dBA.

I am looking to upgrade all 5 fans, if need be.

My system generally gets pretty heated, and I'd like to see it reduced significantly. CPU Cooler is stock, which I can hopefully change out eventually.
I know this sounds crazy but with the air filters on, and only Firefox and Skype open it sometimes idles at the temperature of around 105-110 F. During heavy gaming the processor temp. can get as hot as 155 - 164 F. (seen with the software CPUID HWMonitor)

If you would like to see my system specs, they are here.

Yes, I know all this already. It has no dust inside it... Its a fairly new PC... I put it together in early March 2015.
As I said - Stock CPU cooler.
Cable Management is as good as it's going to get... Most cables were routed thru the side-wall of the case, and using a Semi-Modular PSU.
I don't do overclocking.
