My case doesn't have great airflow...
__________________I have: 1 120mm exhaust. 2x 80mm intakes (top and the top-left of side panel) I need a fan at the bottom... because my hard drive and graphics are getting a little hot. How can I add another fan to my case... without cutting holes? I was thinking something like this? ![]() How would I go about doing this ^ Also.. On a side note, I need a way to hide my fan cables (power and fan control cables)

If you have three 5.25" drive bays available, you might consider purchasing a Scythe Kama-bay fan assembly.
It lets you add a 120mm intake fan to the front of your case ... but you will need the above mentioned three drive bays available. It comes in black or silver .. Here's a link: Scythe KAMA-BAY 120mm Fan for 5.25" System Cooling ...

That is the Antec Nine Hundred isn't it?
Assuming you have the 2 front 120mm fans still there, it should have brilliant airflow. EDIT: Forget that, I knew I had seen that pic before.

Can't do much without modifying it a bit. You could try another intake like the above guy mentioned.

Maybe post a picture of the front of the case so I can get an idea of what you mean ...

You would have to remove the covers in the same way you would as if you were intalling a CD drive, just instaed theres a fan there

hmmm.... I'm considering cutting a hole in the bottom for 2 120's. Does anybody know of a kit with 2 120's kinda like what the first guy posted, but for the bottom.
__________________I think this is the only way to get better intake - and it would work since my computer is ontop of this grid thing with holes.

![]() you can't leave it open... its like latched on, and u put in cd's just by opening it with a little force, otherwise it will close back up... if you know what I mean.
