Modding a Lancool PC K57

Hi All,

I have a cheap Lancool case that I am going to use as my first modding project. I am by and large happy with the case, but the lack of an exhaust fan(s) in the top panel seems to be an issue I would like to resolve.

At first, I thought I could drill holes and install a Corsair H100, but it looks like there isn't enough room between the top panel and the motherboard for both fans and a rad (see photo).

I'm thinking my other option is to use a surplus H50 I have lying around on the rear mount, and mod the top panel to accommodate two 140 mm fans to exhaust the hot air.

Has anyone modded this case before or have any general advice? Thanks in advance.
