Do I need a new case?

I have an older Antec ATX case that has room for only 2 80mm fans (1 each in front and back) that may still be useful for an upgrade but how far can I go without drilling holes for a new 120? Is that just a bad idea or is drilling (probably the door) a good option?

This is a second computer (1.1Mhz) that I use for less demanding Photoshop work and never for gaming but the GPU just died and I am considering getting a used mobo/cpu/GPU for a bit more speed.

Thanks
 
Drill it. Since you're already considering a new case, if you screw up, won't be too much skin off your back.
 
Make sure you take all the components out before you drill & clean it real good after you drill, making sure you've removed all the metal shavings. 🙂

There you go. That's a relatively painless way to experiment and see what you can do with a modding experiment.
