Check your overall airflow - make sure that the air is moving through the case and not just piling up. I had an issue with mine getting warm, turns out that one of the fans on the back was backwards (pushing air in instead of sucking it out) which meant that the air was coming in and going out the through the power supply... but not moving any air at the front of the case.

You can test this will a little bit of smoke (incence works good). Just let a little go in the front of the PC, and see where it comes out from. If it isn't coming out, you have an issue.

My computer now I can put my hand on the front grill of the case, and feel the air being drawn through to the back... and there is no fan on the front, only on the back (and it is a dual code with a big ass video card with it's own fans).
