this is your fortron? i could feel warm air with stock fans. it wasnt blowing nearly as fast as my other fans, but it was coming out.

i just dont think PSU temps really affect the cpu too much. unless your psu is your only case exhaust, and your case temps are suffering (case temps much higher with case closed than with case open) i would say it might be overkill. but i know some people here are into that sort of thing ;)
