Help me cool a Wavemaster


Well, I love my Coolermaster Wavemaster case, its beautiful...but I would like the CPU temps to be a little lower (about 50C under load with no overclock). I'll do some more tests to get a better temp reading, but thats around what it is.

I dont know if I can do anything about the intake (2x80mm stacked), but I'm aware that top panel where the usb, firewire and sound ports are comes off and a fan easily installs in there. Are there any other places where I could add a fan, or reduce cooling some other way.

P.S. I'm not really looking to do any modding to the case itself if I don't have to, I'm no Bob Villa and this thing is too pretty to scar. However, Im open to easy suggestions.
