I bought the Zalman 92mm CPU cooler seen below:
__________________http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835118223 This cooler mounts with the fan blowing air up or down, towards the PSU or the GPUs... Which way would be better? Does it matter? This dropped my CPU temps some 8-10 degrees C, but is apparently not as effective when I actually close the case... So that's why I'm wondering if the mounting isn't right. I've got a ton of Arctic Silver 5 so I can mount and remount as much as needed...

Point the fan at the PSU (which means the fan would be on the bottom, blowing the air up).

Don't have it blowing up or down.
Have it blow towards the rear exhaust of your case. There are instructions on Zalman's website for that orientation.
