Modded case

My P4 has been screaming hot (with no OC). I already have installed 2 80 mm fans and a Gigabyte 3D Cooler PRO wth adjustable fan speeds (upto 4000 rpm) I think its my case , that its small, that it has bad ventilation thats causing all these problems. Finally decided to get a 120 mm fan - got one from Aerocool for 18 bucks...The case and system idle temps are now down to 37-38 deg C and under load conditions 50 deg C...I remember Intel had mentioned that Prescotts run so hot that they can run pretty good upto 65 deg C.
Also added two Dragon grills to the 80 mm fans on my case (one on top and one on bottom). Post your thoughs. Pictures attached below
