Perhaps you could replace your existing fans with higher CFM ones that can shift more air???

A better HSF would lower temps too.

Regarding power supplies a midrange supply from one of the top tier manufacturers (Antec/Enermax/Tagan/Seasonic) should do the job nicely.

"I currently have a floor fan behind the case to blow air into it. The computer is running at a steady temperature of about 36 degrees."


If I read that correctly you are pushing air towards your exhaust fans which is making it harder for the warm air to escape from your case.
If you use the fan it would be better sending cool air towards the front of your case.

Tidying up the wiring is also a good idea to avoid impeding the airflow.
