There's got to be a better fan for the Inspiron 530

I've got a Dell Inspiron 530 "full size". It's only got the two fans in the whole case (cpu and case). I've been looking to upgrade my fan to something to move a little more of the heat out of my case. I've upgraded the ram, put a 620watt psu in, new E8400 upgrade, installed a second hdd, new sound card, and new gpu. All of these things have made the temp's higher in my case. What's my best choice for improving the airflow in a "cramped" 530 case? I don't want to cut holes in it unless I'm left with no other options. I've spent more on my upgrades than the whole system cost new so, I don't want to risk any of the cards or cpu when I can spend a little more and get a better fan! I'm not possitive but, I believe it's 92mm. I don't care what it costs as long as it works and doesn't sound like a stealth fighter powering up. Thanks for any insites you can provide.
