Better fans for watercooler?

Hey guys,

Got a North Q Siberian tiger watercooler on my X6 1090t. Currently using the fan that came with it and the exhaust fan from the Antec 1200 case on the rad. Would getting better fans such as the corsair Sp120's make a huge difference to temperatures?

Currently get about 62c (Load temp) on each core with the 1090t running @ 4ghz.
 
maybe a 1-3 degrees drop it just doesnt have the surface area for great cooling like a custom system with huge rads
 
Quick google search and it looks to me as them having a fairly loose fin density so a high pressure fan realy wont help like it does with 60mm thick high density rads, from memory the antec fans arent to great so swapping it out for a fan that moves more air would be your best bet but 62c seems like a fine temperature to me so its 100% up to you if your thinking about trying to push the clocks more
 
Thanks for the replies everyone,

Think the best thing to do for me now is get a new cooler and get better fans for said cooler, 4ghz is a nice clock but I guess I could squeeze more out of it :)
