Front Fan

[Kishan]

Hey guys,
I have this case:
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=11-124-060&DEPA=1
I have the included side fan, 80 mm in the back, and a PCI fan. How do I put a fan in the front to intake air, cuz I realize that I have one intake, two exhausts(pci included which works great-lowers case temp by 9 degrees), but I should include another intake. So how do I install a front fan?
PS My temps are 39C Mobo (comp has been running for 24 hrs d/ling and sometimes been gaming)
Thanks for all you're help!

Well it looks like you have a 120mm fan grill in the front. So, go out and buy a 120mm fan, then hook it up with your case open and see which way the air blows, keep in mind there is usually the brand sticker on it where it blows. After you know which way it blows, it will also come with screws, take the front panel off of you case and then screw the fan in the way it should go for intake that you noted before. And it should be good to go then.

also would it be ok if i could use an 80 mm, cuz I don't think we have any 120 mm fans at the bestbuy I work at(which I get a HUGE discount on! Thanks anyway though

well if you have a circuit city there you can pick up an antec smart fan at 120mm for probably 20 bucks or so........ and for the front part, It can be kind of challenging, but sometimes you'll just have to put some muscle into it, inspect how it is put on... usually there are some connector things you have to squeeze and push out of the metal part of the case.

looks like tiny holes that block more air then anything else. go dremel those things out. hate those tiny holes on cheap cases
