MicroCenter has  a good selection of fans too.  The general rule is to have
one sucking air in at the bottom in the front of the machine, and then make
sure the fan on your power supply is blowing out the back.  If the power
supply is sucking air in, take it apart and flip the fan around.  Otherwise
all of the hot air coming out of the power supply blows right on your CPU.
Heat rises, so cold air in the bottom, and hot out the top is the most
efficient.
