question about Raidmax X1

For those Raidmax X-1 owners out there, how many 80mm fan slots does it have? Newegg simply says 1 80mm in the side and 1 120mm in the back, but I?m wondering if there?s a second 80mm slot in front of the HDD cage.

Also I?m going to buy these fans soon to replace the stock ones:
80mm Arctic Cooling ProTC Temperature-controlled LED fan
120mm Cooler Master (39 cfm, 23 dBA)

Do those fans push enough air to cool an OC?d Opteron 165 or Athlon X2? (600+ mhz Overclock if I get the Opteron) I'm trying to keep it as quiet as possible while still being able to get that OC.
 
there is another fan slot for the HDD, but as long as the rest of your case is cool, you shouldn't need it. I would suggest the Pro2l version of the same fan if you want silence. At the lowest setting, it cools exactly the same as stock but completely silent. and get an Akasa Amber 120mm, it's quieter and pushes slightly more air (plus it looks awsome for the window). from expeirience, the case is very cool and looks nice, just don't scratch it.

edit: i'm still having trouble with the case USB, tell me if you find anything
 
my USB works fine.

as for silence, grab two really quiet fans. the stock 120 mm exhaust is too loud for my liking. the 80 mm side intake has been moved to my AXP comp, which is using it as a CPU fan.
