I have a lot of big plans for my new mod. I have already built a baybus for four fans, and they are just sittion in the case I am running now. (I know they dont do much just sitting there, but I like to play with the switches anyway. Ans, they lower my system temp 3 deg. C without the proper holes...) Where is the best place for four large (120mm??) fans? I am thinking 1 blowhole, two in the side, and one in front/back. Also, what about Push/pull? Please help this poor newbie!

You want to try and keep the airflow into your case about the same as the airflow out of your case, so it'd be a good idea to have two fans sucking air in and two fans exhausting out. I'd go for an intake at the bottom front, an intake on the side opposite the PCI cards, and two 120mm blowholes at the top. There might not be room at the top of the case though for two 120mm blowholes, so you might have to find somewhere else, maybe at the back of the case above the psu if there's room. Below is a pic I drew while playing around with designs for my own case, I've modified it to show two top blowholes:

I am thinking of doing the exact same thing. I found a place that has 120mm fans for like 4 bucks. excess-solution.com. i figured I may as well begin to mod my case since I am getting a duron.
