Maybe this is redundant, but: whenever you change a fan/cooler combination, it's very wise to re-apply some coolingpaste on the bottom of the cooler first, since the old paste is likely to be hard or scraped off. SO instead of thinking that you have massive cooling due to your large cooler, it may be even worse because isn't dissapated as well as before. Just a suggestion...
