Default Fans for OCing

i am buying a Intel 2.4 GHZ northwood Celeron (p4 based) and am looking to OC it 400-600 MHZ. the case comes with 6 fans but i dont know if they are good. here is the case : http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE

does that case have good airflow and are the fans quality and NOT loud???

also, what are some good models of hsf and CPU fans???

finally, how many case fans would be a good amount and where is a good place where i can purchase ones taht will do the job for 10$ or less (i am looking at maybe buying 2 80 MM and 1 120 plus the 6 that come with the case)

add 120mm to the top of the case (exhaust) one to to back (exhaust)

a fan or two to the front (intake)
and a fan or two on the side (intake)

there ya go, get 2 120's, one for the back and one for the top or front

400-600 should be ok, use arctic silver 5 heatsink compound and monitor your temperatures with a program like motherboard monitor 5
