I would like to increase my airflow in my case but I am clueless on how to do it.
I have to fan hookup on my mobo system fan and fan 1 that I can use.
System fan is a 80mm exhaust fan which in all reality sucks. there is no fan hooked up to fan 1.The psu has it's own fan of course but that isn't gonna help with the heat from my 8800gt when I get it installed.

http://support.gateway.com/s/CASES/GERSHWIN/3507087Rnv.shtml there is a link of my case.
I have no idea of how to increase airflow.I would like 1 inlet fan and 1 exhaust fan.I don't know where to put the inlet and outlet or which size or brand to get.
I don't care about the noise I just don't want it to get too hot inside of there and water cooling isn't an option I have to use air so please help me out I really need it
 
You can fit in a 90mm fan in the rear if I'm looking at the rear case correctly. As for a front fan, it looks like you can barely fit in an 80mm underneath the drive cage. It doesn't look there's enough room between the bezel and the front of the case to fit in a fan there. Though if you remove the grills there might be enough room to fit in a fan behind the bezel.

So it doesn't like there's much that you can do to improve the airflow inside the case.
 
I can take off the front bezel piece and add a fan there.I was thinking of taking off the bezel and cutting out that grill behind it or leaving it and fitting in the biggest fan possible for an inlet since I dont have one yet.
Well the rear already has an 80mm in it now so I hope I can get a fan bigger then 90mm in there I hope.,
I don't have the cash right now for a fan since I will only have the cash to get my new psu on the 20th of this month.I would have to wait until my next payday to buy a case then I have to go thru the trouble of taking it apart and putting it back together and I don't wanna do that
 
is there any certain reason you suggested those fans and nothing else?
