Hello all, I was considering adding a second fan to my hyper 212+. I was also considering instead of a second fan, just getting a single higher cfm fan. I'm just trying to get some lower temps. I've heard that a second fan barely yields any change and maybe only a couple degrees. That would be fine. I had even thought about a closed loop water cooler but I'm kind of "iffy" about having liquid in my computer. I'm really still used to "AMD temps" and I'm getting over the mental hump that Ivy's run hotter. Here's what I have:
I5-3570k @4.4ghz with 1.192vcore barely hits 76c on IBT
AsRock Z77 extreme4
G. skill ripjaws X 1600 8gb (2x4)
hd 6850
thermaltake tr2 600w psu
I have a scythe ultra kaze as my rear exhaust that moves a ton of air. For the second fan I would just get a Cooler Master Blademaster. If I went with the single fan route I would get either:

or

any opinion is helpful or if I'm just being crazy let me know. Thanks
