You better flip the CPU fan over. It's blowing towards the front of the case.   Or flip the rear exhaust fan over and use it as in intake fan. Currently it's setup as an exhaust fan.

 

I would rather modify a fan so that it fits over top of the memory than to have it Pull air. Fans tend to be more efficient at pushing air through a cooler.

I have three fans in the front pulling air in and then two fans up top and one in the back pushing air out of the tower. The fan on my cooler will only fit right there. If I put it on the other side of the cooler, I cant get my fourth memory stick installed.

The air gets sucked into the blade side of a fan and blows out towards the fan hub or spindle. I noticed 1 of the 4 legs that connects the cage to the fan hub in your pics is facing the cooler so it's definitely trying to push air from the back of the case towards the front. Which won't work very well with a rear exhaust fan trying to suck all of the air away from it before it can get to the cpu fan.

 

Flip the CPU fan over. You can keep the fan on the back side of the cooler, but you need to flip the CPU fan over. If you don't it is going to overheat the CPU and cause it to thermal throttle or damage the CPU or the socket on the motherboard.  

 

1st pic is with the CPU fan pushing toward the front of the case like you have it. There is little to no air movement across the cooler because the rear exhaust fan and the CPU fan are trying to blow air in opposite directions.

If you flip the CPU fan over so that it blows towards the back of the case it will pull air from the front of the case and pull it through the CPU cooler and  rite out the back of the case.

If he isn't overclocking none of that will matter.. I have same directional flow as his setup on standard settings and have run this pc for 11 years...?  But also running cooler master case so we know how good they cool  ?

@ANGU5 he has 2 fans within inches of each other that are sucking against each other. The rear exhaust fan is blowing air out the back of the case and the CPU fan is blowing air towards the Front of the case. Neither fan will move much air like that. If he flips the CPU fan over, not the cpu cooler (Fans are directional) so that it blows toward the rear exhaust fan the CPU will run much much cooler.

Yea I know @BUDMAN.  That's how mine is and that is how I set up every PC that I've ever built in the last 20+ years. That's how his would be If he flips his CPU fan over. It's hard to explain since one else sees what I see. 

Doesn't matter if he has the fan on the back side of the CPU cooler as long as the CPU fan is blowing in the correct direction.

His cpu fan is blowing in the incorrect direction and can't get the air it needs because of the exhaust fan and the CPU fan are blowing in Opposite directions. Bet you his CPU Temps are 20c + higher than they should be at idle.

 

Guessing no one else seen that the fan on his CPU is facing the front of the case?  "Facing" as in the back side (bearing side) of the fan is facing the CPU Cooler. 

<====[]  []====>

 

This person named Assassin7 did the same thing and while gaming his CPU temps went over 100c. Scroll down downto just over 1/2 way in this thread to GotchMasters post. he explains it better than I can.   https://forum.wotlabs.net/index.php?/topic/25790-pc-temps/

He flipped the CPU fan over so that it was blowing in the rite direction and CPU temps went down to under 70c while gaming on an overclocked i5 3570K.

 

Maybe this will help? explain what I'm talking about. Edited your pic in msPaint @BUDMAN lol.
