The case is nice but air flow.

I have a case that looks similar but not as nice as this one...

But as you suspect i have 3 fans running just to get some cool air in... excluding the cpu one.

The cpu runs an average 53degrees for a 1.8AMD chip. My other machine with the AMD 64 3000+ with less fans is running 43degrees.

So yes i think things might heat up.
 
You're better off with a case using a 120mm intake and exhaust, or if you're using an Athlon 64, even just the exhaust in a small case is usually fine. These fans provide far better airflow and MUCH less noise. The 80mm fans in cases like these emit a terrible whining drone.
 
the airflow is fine, i had one, and it cooled just as well as anyone elses.
 
I agree with Epicenter. Less noise with bigger fans. I went from 120mm to 80mm in my current case and it sounds like a vacuum is always on :(.
 
From the design, it doenst do well pulling air in through the front. Has to just come from bevel on bottom which causes dust as well. I looked into it, but especially for OC'ing, it doesnt move air too well. Does look nice tho
