CPU/Case Cooling - Drastic Measures

I'm looking for some effective methods of cooling my computer down. I've been fairly removed from the whole hardware scene for a while, so I'm not sure what's out there nowadays. What are my options?

I've got an aluminum case with several high speed fans blowing air on my hard drives and sucking it off my CPU. This doesn't seem to be helping much as my programs frequently crash out of the blue. I know this is a heat issue because when I take measures to REALLY cool things down (much hassle and noise) they dont crash anymore.

I'd also like a suggestion on a CPU temp monitoring tool. It would help a bit right now.
