As for the temp in your room, how are you acheiving a temperature on your CPU lower than your room temp? because that's impossible. Unless you have some sort of exotic cooling method, peltier, or those compressors etc...

My zalman 'flower' type cooler really works well, and has a huge 92mm fan on it. And i've got two intake fans, two exhaust (not including the psu fans), and two pci card fans to cool my 9800 aiw just underneath it.
