Need some case modding resources

[Tasandmnm]

I have a coolermaster centurion case and while it cools adequately I really want to improve upon it. The biggest way I can see to do that since I already have 120mm fans on the rear, side, and front, is to add an exhaust fan to the top of the case. I also want to improve the looks of the case a little since it is a rather subdued case, so I wanted to add a couple of small oval windows to the side of the case that will allow a little more light to escape and show off the purti-ness of the inside of my case.

Basically I am looking for some how-to articles to do these things. I know I could just get out the drill and put a fan on top of my case, that shouldn't be too hard...but I would still love to read of other people's experiences doing this before I do it. Now as to adding some small clear side panels I am completely clueless of where to even start.

There is little solid evidence that a blowhole makes much difference at all. As for the side window(s), many of the resellers mentioned here have window kits for as little as $5.00. Some all you need to do is cut out the hole and it doesn't even have to be a really smooth job.

svc, xoxide, performance-pcs, directron, crazypc, etc. are some places to look.

Thanks Zepper, I really appreciate it.

And maybe a fan in the top of my case won't make much difference; but after temperature probing the inside of my case (with it closed of course) I am definitely getting signifigantly higher temps in the central upper part of my case so some exhaust there definitely won't hurt me
