CPU temps dropped / Case temps rose XP-90

I just upgraded my stock H/S and AS3 to a Thermalright XP-90 with AS5 and Panaflo 5200RPM model. My CPU load temps dropped from 64C to 56C but my case temps rose from 32C to 34C. I guess the extra heat has to go somewhere... This has allowed me to bump from 275*9 to 280*9 and I will try for more later...

My question... is there any Video Card cooler for my eVGA 6800GT that will make good contact with the BGA rams that also funnels the air outside the case? - I bet this would lower my case temps alot and allow me to get better results from my VC overclock!



Also, the Tsunami Dream case window intake fan is lined up perfectly with the Panaflo on the XP90 and is a great setup!
 
The nv5 silencer by arctic cooling. Contact with the bga's is dependent on the cooler you get. Some nv5's make better contact than others. Mine worked out well on my eVga 6800gt.
