It might be interesting to see how the airflow works inside your case. Just bolting on extra fans isn't always the best solution. You need to actually plan your system for it to be effective.
For example, in my chieftec case, the situation now is that two coolers draw hot air out the back, *and* suck in cool air through the side hole of the case, which just happens to go straight over my videocard, cooling that better. Were I to put two extra fans towards the front of the case, blowing in, there would hardly be a difference in temperature (I tried) overall, and my videocard would get hotter.
By the way, you say you remove the dust from your coolers every week. Do you also remove any dust that could be hidden in the hard-to-reach areas of your case? My Chieftec case has a plastic front, and there's always a lot of dust settling between the plastic and the metal of the case itself. That dust is hard to see and remove, but if you don't remove it, it could eventually block the front fans.
