Dang BC, first post ever in the Cooling forum! You beat me to it! If you just want regular 80mm fans, try Startech.com they make good stable parts.

Their <a href="http://www.pcpowercooling.com/products/cooling/system/index_tc_2x.htm" target="_blank">Turbo-Cool 2X</a> looks really nice. It's a fan that mounts over the existing fan on your power supply. It not only doubles the air flow through the power supply, but also acts as a backup in case the power supply fan fails. They claim it will cool the case 5° to 15° C, and cool the CPU 10° to 25° C. Unlike most case fans, the Turbo-Cool is 115VAC powered, not 12VDC, so it can put out a lot more power. The only real down side is the price, $55!

More stuff to spend $$$ on... I'm gonna get that HDD cooler. My 7200rpm drive gets so hot.

One thing I noticed is the $90 cooling fan/heat sink. Damn thing better mow the lawn or somethin'...

Power of the fan is not a sufficient index to measure the couling of the inside of the case. Small to moderate fan is usually sufficient if the case has enough of influx area. As to the cooling of the HD, all depends on the location of the HD inside the case. The best location is to place facing the inflow of the air.
