May be overkill. Two 1000's shouldn't generate a huge amount of heat in a room that size, your 745 CFM might be enough, of course depending where you live and whether you run your lights at night or in the day. What kind of intake do you have?

You're not circulating air and pulling hot air instead of cold.
The intake should be at the bottom and filter placed at the top, on different sides of the room and not close to each other.
I would hang the filter at the top -horizontally- and use some ducting to pull fresh air in.

whatever you do(and above advice is solid) do not get a portable ac. they are the most inefficient way to go. water cooling is good, a mini split is absolutely the best by far. i run a 6x10 very sealed flower room with 3k in lights, co2 gen, dehumidifier, all ballasts in room and my minisplit keeps it at any temp i want.
