Panasonic Panaflo 100-200cfm. Will make your pc sound like a factory and pick up the dust. You don't want that.

Look into Scythe KAZE.

If your room gets really warm, having more fans won't help all that much as the ambient air getting drawn into the case is already warm. Granted it still cools your components, it won't be as effective.

Pro tip: open a window or 2 while you're running your PC. In my room it gets warm enough to have the windows open a crack until 2-3 am while I'm on my comp and it helps.

Ive got a Black P180. On mine there was room for 2 in the middle compartment, if you removed that middle internal drive holder. I have 2 4850's lined right up with that middle compartment so I stuck a fan in the front, there was an unused fan holder even. I went with another 3 speed antec fan like what came with the case. Very quiet. My room also heats up quite a bit (85-90F) once the computer is on, but I haven't had any overheating problems in the computer yet.

So yea, I recommend the antec fans, the three speeds is very handy to control the sound vs air flow.

and it's been confirmed that the ultra kaze will fit in your case :D and it already has thick side panels and such so it'll decrease the sound right? so it'll do just fine
