Ok my system is setup as below (yes my art skills are amazing)

My Idle temps are around 38-45 degrees now for all cores, with an overclock at 4,5ghz . Under max load my temps never exceed 65 degrees on any core under prime 95 or intel burn test.

These results are at quietest fan settings. I get about 10 degrees lower if I put fans to mid speed. However, unless at minimum speed the fans sound like 2 jumbo jets, would you say these temperatures are good enough for 24/7 ?
 
I'm confused as to why you'd have the fans that way though, pushing heat into the case is never a good idea!

You should reverse all of those fans, it's always better to have more fans extracting than pulling air in!
 
^Yep, The only way you'd get away with that config is if that rear fan was extremely powerful, which I'm guessing its not.
 
When I reverse the fans I get about 10 degrees higher temps than with this way around.

Forgot to mention I have 2 200m fans at rear.
