A couple of case fans in there might help a bit.
Check out <A HREF="http://www.quietpc.com" target="_new">this</A> site. A combination of case fans and HSF from them would do the trick.

So you want your cake and eat it too eh? In the 40's?? Well I'm alittle out of date but I'd think you'd need to increase the noise your stock heatsink makes to achieve that. Most likely in the 45+db range when your now probably in the 30db range.
May I ask why you are concerned with your temps?? Are you experiencing lockups or mysterious reboots?? Or are you just reading around about people getting 40degree temps??
I'd say if you are content with your system and don't plan on overclocking, you will be just fine as is.
And to back up the previous post, you'll probably do better by spending 10 bucks on a couple of case fans and putting them in to increase you case flow.

Well curently ive got 2 vantec stealths in my case but im still not to sure what to think is a "good" cpu temp. Like Eveyone keeps making it seem like running in the high 50's is bad. I dont want it shortening my cpu life or anything. But the current coolermaster I got now to me seem alittle noisy.. the one thing I like about my other pc, its an Amd Athlon 950 with only 3 fans, Psu, 1 case, and CPU was that it was virtualy silent yet the cpu runs at a nice 33 C under load!.. I mean it kidove stinks at times to see that the new Athlons run so hot and need some Loud air cooling to cool them down... maybe id be better off watercooling my system?.. it was a thought that ive been thinking about.. and I was also thinking about maybe Ocing my Athlon Xp 1900+ in the future.. Well thanks for your guys input so far.
Get a Volcano7+, it has a 3 speed switch when on the lowest fan speed setting I can actually hear my hard drives. On the lowest fan setting and running at 100 % cpu load my CPU temp is 55-58C, medium 50C and high speed 46C.
The fan is fairly loud on the fastest fan speed but I never have needed to use it and usually set on medium or low.

All Athlon processors are thoroughly tested to reach temps of 80 C, and AMD actually claims that 90 C is their max before they start to fry. Before they are made, the raw materials for them are scouted out by AMD and the ones with the best electrical transfer capabilities are chosen. They take great care in making processors be able to withstand heat, much better than video card chipsets, which are normally rated to only work at temperatures no higher than 55 C.

Ok, I will run this past you then. I had a Thunderbird 1.4Ghz cpu that would simply lock up at 61+C, that cpu has had the begesus overclocked out of it and has even had a vcore set at 2.09 at one stage but it always locked up at 61 degrees Celsius?
This cpu has seen three different makes of mainboards and about to see a fourth. I also have a XP2100 which seems to run hotter but is stable over the above mentioned temp.

I'm not sure why a Thunderbird would lock up at 61 C. I own a Tbird but I've never used it, so I don't have any tests or anything.
My own AthlonXP processor is stable to 68 C but I didn't test any higher than that. Some people who come to this forum even have stable processors at 75-80 C (the people asking for better HSF's) although this may be an inaccurate temperature reading.
Asus' own proprietary motherboard Temp/RPM/Voltage monitor defaults on AthlonXP processors to only give an overheat warning once the processor is 77 C. All of this and practical experience tells you that XP's were probably designed to withstand more heat or perhaps run more stable at high temperatures than their Thunderbird counterparts.
