Sonata 2 and fans

[rayschaller]

Hey all getting ready to make the jump to c2d and have some questions about a christmas present from my gf.

She has recently let it slip i will be getting this case , i had on list earlier in the year before i was thinking water cooling and now just would like some experiences with this case and setups.

Some things i'm looking for are more fan setups ,placement wise cause i noticed it seems to only run 1 120mm man thru that venting area from rear.is it possible to place some exaust 120 in top and something front to bring in air?

I'll be WC the e6300 with a Corsair Nautilus 500 External Water Cooling Kit from the thread review and maybe chipset on gpu which will be a 8800 gts in beginning of january hopefully.

Sorry for long post just trying to get a decent setup with this case and make the best of it,here are my components overall for the new comp.

e6300 c2d
GB S3 mobo
evga 8800 gts
corsair value select 1GB

and whatever HDD i pick up local ,thanks in advance for the help and happy OC'ing

Also i don't mind grinding some holes if needed for fans , been looking for a reason tocut things =))

Another things I was curious about , how well does the 8800 gts sit in this tower..as far as the venting system is concerned?

The Sonata II has a intake fan in front, the screw holes for the fan are on the outside edge of the hard drive cage. As far as the 8800 goes, I can't help you on that one since I don't own one. Hope this helps.
