Why am I not getting cooler temperatures?

I built my PC not too long ago, and I've had just the stock fan for the Corsair H60 pulling air from the case, behind the radiator. I installed another fan that also pulled from the case, but blowing into the radiator. I did a CPU Temp. before and after installing, and there wasn't the slightest improvement in the Temperature. Why? Please help! My temperature by its self is good, but I would like it a bit cooler.

at idle the temps will be as close to ambient as they can. where the H series coolers shine and perform is when the CPU is under load, so a push-pull arrangement will knock off a few degrees.

even on the custom loop i just built at idle i have 26c and 57c stressing all 8 cores @ 5.3G but when i throw 3 more fans on top of my triple rad it shaves 4-5c off. the H series should do the same if your ambient temps are not too warm.
