I just bought a brand new case, and I'm wondering how to work the air flow. I'm trying to get better at knowing these things but need a place to find out the information, so here I am. The case has an upper fan slot, which I assume is hot air exhaust, and two fan spots in the back for exhaust. There is a side fan that I assume is for cooling the motherboard (intake), or is this another exhaust fan? Finally there is a huge spot for a big fan at the front of the case, is this the only intake or is the side an intake too? The front spot seems to take air from the bottom of the case, as there is no holes directly in front of it. Any ideas?

Make that case black and you got my case. Front and side is intake, back is exhaust. I got rid of the top and put in a window, much nicer now. I would really recommend cutting the back blowholes away and put in grills, I can feel MUCH more air coming out now.

Its aluminum and comes with one case fan (the side panel fan). Not sure about the type of power supply.. its 350W, but I will check the mfg. later on today. It also comes with a blue light: Pretty...
