Those side intakes will certainly keep anything you have in there cool. You can never have too many 120mm fans. It certainly looks a good case mind you.
If it does fit it looks like it may be a tight squeeze. I looked at a picture of it holding a 8800GTS and it only looked a shade bigger than an Antec 900.
You might need to look for a slightly longer case, unless someone can correct me on this.
