Yeah, and how you put your coolers? I have in my case 8 coolers. Front all
coolers push the air and back coolers pull the air so there is very good air
flow in inside of my case. I have some couple coolers pushing air in left side
of case too :) But m/b temp is around 40.. I have dual p2 300, 4hd and ELSA
GLoria-XXL which makes lot of heat too with those grafic prosessors.

40 is not still bad.. in my old case there was around 40-70 and thats too
big.. sometimes my machine crashed because of heat (ambien temp is around
20-35). So don`t worry about 30-40. Usually max temp for computer part is
about 50-60.
