Fill the case with marijuana leaves.

At first it will seem to get hot and start smoking, but after a while you will realise that everything is cool.

When I replaced the stock 4-pipe HSF on my x2 4400 with one lovingly handcrafted from hash, I found that temps rose considerably but neither the CPU nor I cared much.
Coincidentally, all my default Windows sounds morphed into snippets from Dark Side of the Moon.

Get a can of compressed air from your nearest computer seller type person and blow all the dust out that you can find inside the case.
See how that improves things.

Yah, and when you do that you may consider installing some dust filters to avoid having to dust every 2-3 months...
