i plan on buying a alpha 8045 with a 80mm fan for my new athlon xp 1800+

also i will be buying a 450 enermax PSU with 2 fans on PSU and a slot fan that blows 38cfm and 2 more 80mm fans running 48cfm

so i should be getting a total output of 330cfm
will this help my overclock?

Doesn't look like a bad case. Airflow will definately help you keep your chip cool, which in turn should help your overclock. Try to keep the balance slightly positive (of your 330CFM, have 180 in and 150 out or something), and try to have an intuitive airpath. Front fans intake, back fans exhaust, side fans in or something of that nature. Experiment with different setups and see what gives you the best performance.

any case can be made better with abit of love (and possably some tools) in conclusion dont spend to much on a case and buy for looks instead of cooling cus it is also easyer to made something cool then look cool
