Should I add these cooling products?

So i am looking for small way to improve cooling in my NZXT Nemesis Elite Case
Right now I have 3 120mm fans.
These fans locations are:
1 in front bottom (right in front of HD Cage)
1 in side window panel, blowing on GPU and CPU
1 in back as an exhaust

I also have the Apack Zerotherm BTF90 heatsink for my CPU.

So I was looking around and I figured it would help to have a fan near the mid front of my case and I found this, the Scythe Kama Bay ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185019 )

I also, figured that near the bottom of my case near my video card would help as well and I found this ( http://www.xoxide.com/thermaltake-tmg-sl1.html ).

Also, I am going to get an OCZ XTC Memory Cooler for my Firestix

Thanks for the help
 
i like both of them; it would seem that the air from the 120mm fan you already have as intake in the front may not be as efficient at bringing in air because of the hard drives (i dunno how many you've got). But a new front intake would be very good. Also about the Thermaltake cooler, that looks pretty nice; ive seen some slot coolers that are kinda cheap looking but that one looks like it will cool well. but depending on how close you have it to ur video card, it may pull air away from the video card fan, thus reducing efficiency
 
I am looking to put that PCI Slot Cooler at the very bottom PCI slot (near the bottom of the case) so it can suck the hot air out and not disrupt the airflow for the graphics card

Currently I only have 1 HD and I am prob. not going to add anymore.
But I figured why not 1 more in the front (it cant hurt :))
