I'm building my 1st comp and i was wondering how you would go about adding fans to the case. I'm getting the antec p160 with 2 120mm fans. I'm going to oc my northwood 3.2 processor and i need the case to be cool. Will the 120 mm fans be enough or will i need to add some fans?:confused:

I have the P160 also. I am not overclocking and my system is running cool as a cucumber. I have given some thought to how I would add fans if I wanted to. The side window is so pretty I didn't want to cut it. I finally decided that I would cut the top and add a blowhole then cut the bottom and add an intake there. You can also run a PCI slot fan (look at Antec, they make one). You can run a fan bank in the 5.25" slots but I haven't seen one yet that would look good with this case. They all tend to be beige (you may be able to find a black one). If you got the 160 w/o the side window then that would be a candidate for cutting in a fan.
