Is there any where to buy a side panel for the Antec P180 with a window and a spot for a fan? I need some way to get my video card fresh air. Or does the case have a spot for a fan on the front to point at my video card.
 
If you remove the middle hard drive cage, you can put a fan in. Early cases had a mount for a fan over the video cards, but I think they removed that in the newer revisions.
 
Actually, you can keep the top hard drive cage in place and put a fan in front and back of it. The top hard drive cage was designed to act as a wind tunnel for SLI cards. The back fan will only fit if the video card is short enough though, and you can't use a hard drive in the cage with the back fan in place. The case came with some pieces of metal that look like unbent paper clips. They allow you to clip a fan onto the back of the cage (the same way fans hook onto Thermalright heatsinks). I believe the manual shows you how to do it.

I personally only run a fan in the front of my top hard drive cage (with a hard drive in it too). On my brother's case, we used the dual fan solution. I looked to see if I could find some pictures of the dual fan combo, but I couldn't find any for you.
