i got that case its very nice

just put 2 fans at top if you want to increase airflow

I think they are 80mm jobbies from memory

just search for case fans

im seriously looking at adding a heat sensor to mine though as its NOISY with extra fans, and the case being steel seems to act as a good heatsink anyways

im pretty sure I got em from Jungle, but most places sell em

if you just gonna get 2 fans, places like overclockers.co.uk are the places to try as they are often free postage

I bought the type that use a normal power connection (the diskdrive type power connection), but you can get the mobo type connections as well

Get a proper chassis like the SM750/760. Has space for four fans - 2 each side of the 5.25" bay stack.

I got a Tornado case from overclockers.co.uk

Big front/rear case fans, plus two in the top and another two on the side. Gets a bit noisy with them all running though....
