How to replace case fan?

[DustinV]

I have a DIYPC Zondda-B Black ATX Mid Tower Case:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353072&cm_re=diypc_zondda-_-11-353-072-_-Product

The front intake fan isn't working so they sent me a replacement, I knoww how to unplug it from the mobo and take out 4 screws, but im not sure how to get to the font part of the case.
Does the front panel of the case come off? or do i have to go from the side panel?
If i go from the side my gpu, hdd and ssd are in the way and i don't want to have to take all of them out just to replace a fan.
Also i've never noticed that my pc has gotten very hot, can i survive without the intake fan?

Search for a tutorial on youtube and if there isn't try to consult your manual. All cases are designed slightly different so trying to figure exactly what to do can be hard.

No video on youtube and I don't have the manual anymore....

I would honestly just disconnect my pc and open it up. Have a look around the front panel to see if you can see any screws or latches thar hold the fan in place. If the hard drive bay is just behind the fan try to slide the bay forward or back. As for your pc, you shouldn't run it hot and it wouldn't be that bad to change so just have a look and try to see if you can find out where the fan connects and how to remove it.
Sorry for not being much use, i cant seem to find many online resources regarding your case.

I sent an email to DIYPC support ill wait till i get a reply to see what part of the case i can take off to properly get the the fan. You obviously didnt read my post completely because i said that i know how to unscrew the fan, but the drive bays are in the way so i cant physically get close enough to unscrew it. The drive bays are solid metal that doesnt move, i said my pc is never hot, it literally blows out cold air on side and warm air in back, and you are correct you are no use at all.

Forgot to update this post,
DIYPC support responded, i had to take both side panels off, then I could just pop the front panel off and replace the fan. WARNING - make sure you dont rip any wires that are connected to the front panel of your case, either unplug then or make sure you dont pull the font panel off completely
