No need to have the tube next to the bulb. Near the ceiling or top of teh growspace will work as well. As long as you're exhausting hot air out, it'll help.

you want to suck air from the top of the tent/grow room I have a cheap bathroom extractor (36 cfm) with a pipe out near the window keeps my 400w hps in a 1m/1m/2m tent around 75f

Dont forget to have some air coming in as well. Without an intake it makes it alot harder to keep the room cooler because the only source would be from parts if the room that arent sealed.

What size grow room? I have a 600w with a 440 cfm up top. I also bought a clip on fan that is blowing right on my light. My room is 3X4X6.5. I also have a fan blowing air in at the bottom. You should be fine without putting the tube right next to your light, but if you can without a problem go for it!
