Looking at some fan alternatives. Hate to have to pick up a board in ATX and swap everything over to a different case.

What size fans are in the case? Look at Newegg for some low noise, high flow fans. I did this recently for my drafting machine. This helped a bit. Swapping out the power supply helped even more. It is not perfectly quiet, but much much better. If I moved it back under the desk, I would never even notice it.
The CPU fan and the video fans are what I can't change...Well, I can change the CPU fan, but they are expensive! I can switch off the cooling control and let the fans spin up and the difference is huge.
