You will find that most people opt for the push method over the pull method or use both.
IMO nothing wrong with that fan 110cfm is more than enough to cool the HS.

A 2nd fan for Megahalem topic.

I apologize ahead of time for being a PITA.
I've been told I picked out the wrong fan for my Megahalem twice. The last "wrong fan" I got was the Scythe Kaze Jyuni 1900RPM [110cfm]. I've been told that it is not good for HSF in a few posts.
I just came across where the Kaze Jyuni got into my head. It was used on the PCper review of the Megahalem. Pics below.
I also noticed that this fan was set up as a "pull" and not a "push" fan. Seems the test was without a push fan. So I guess I should set the fan to pull if I just use one, huh? [My last and first HSF was the ASUS Silent Square so this issue didn't come up for me before.]
Why is this fan no good? Is it a matter of work life or something? If this is the case I only use my desktop for gaming and will only be on for ~25hrs a week max and probably 10-15hrs a week. It is shut down when I'm done. No sleep. No hibernate.
With that in consideration, is the Scythe Kaze Jyuni 1900RPM [110cfm] still really a bad fan for my Megahalem?

The problem with that fan (and I started out with the same one) is that, while it has great "flow" it has almost no static pressure. You can look at static pressure like this, take a garden hose and place your thumb over the end as it is running and you'll see the water move faster but the water pressure is still at whatever the municipality is pumping it to you. So pushing (or pulling) all that air over the fins does you no good if the pressure moving it is weak.
Personally, I'm running a single Panaflow FBA12G12H1BX pulling and I'm quite happy with my results. My Scythe has been moved to the rear exhaust on my case and is doing quite well there, I just have to do a case mod to remove the restrictions and give it more flow capacity.

I'm really sick of buying fans at the moment. If I'd be happy with the performance PCper got at load with their test, why should I go the extra mile and care about static pressure?

Guess you did not check out my response regarding to the S-Flex G & Xigmatek comparison. S-Flex G's are great fans and although on paper comparison it shows the S-Flex G's being the best in the comparison but spending $15 to $20 more on a pair of fans just to gain ~2C for better cooling & more noise, I can not & will not call the S-Flex G's the best for push/pull setup for Megatron.

I have no plans to OC any further. I just want to keep the temps low and the OC I have as long as possible. I will also I good airflow through the case
Considering the two stock fans [1 in/1 out] are equal, I will also have one CM 69cfm front and one on the side as intake and a CM 69cfm and a Kaze 88cfm out.
3in/3out and a slight increase in max cfm out for +airflow.
