    Advice on case fan placement

    Note I just noticed that there is a mount at the bottom of the case for a 120mm or a 140mm intake fan, so I think I'll be ok as far as case pressure goes but I wanted to check with some of you who know more than me. Thanks again! Any responses are much appreciated!
