DaneGuy: I have the same tower as you, here is what I did --> took all cables and put them behind the backplate, some remaining cables were putt in the hdd/psu bay in the bottom of the tower.
I bought 3x 120 mm noctua fans (at 19 db with 1,300 rpm ~ 93 cfm) 1 intake, and two pushing air out. (3 of these babies http://www.dustinhome.dk/pd_5010128898.aspx)
in general, cable management + better fans would lower your temps a bit.
I got my overclocked q6600 running at 3 ghz, at around 30C idle, 55C full load with prime. Futhermore, your gfx and ram may be thankful to this improved airflow. Secondly, it is possible to fix better airflow intake from the front of the tower. http://www.silentpcreview.com/...postorder=asc&start=30
