You really needed to revive a thread that hasn't been posted in for three years?

I think your case is the bottleneck. My current system is in a Phanteks Enthoo Pro M, and the key thing I had to do to get temps down AND make it much quieter - was to put in a top fan. I added 2 actually - the first one made a huge difference.
My current case has intakes galore - and yet I could only keep it cool and quiet when the door was off; until I added the top fans. My high temperature is on the lower EVGA 1070 FTW video card, and the 4gHz stock voltage i5 is fine with a Kotetsu.
Are you using a top fans?
