Re: Tower case plus fans??

I would opt fo the front fans to pull in cool air and BTW, that is a very nice case. When you order fans, the tri-cool fans are the way to go, they are great.

Re: Tower case plus fans??

Extra fans probably aren't absulutely necessary but a filtered intake or two wouldn't hurt. Personally I don't care for the Tri-cools, granted they are quiet and can move a lot of air, but speed control can be a pain. Also, I've had a problem with pins falling out of the four pin Molex the Tri-cools use.
Note that you will need to mount your PSU upside down in this case and risk a loose screw or stray cable falling in.
For 5 bucks more you can get this Coolermaster:
