i got a p4 3.0ghz processor and i got 2 80 mm fans and i keep overheating so at the moment i have a big fan just running into the side of my computer. im going to get a 120 mm fan and another 80 mm. tell me witch fans should be pullin air out or in. i was thinking all of them bringing except the rear fan and to get a pci card fan that pulls out on tigerdirect.com.. also i have the regular fan and heatsink that the processor came with. it seems as if the case isnt getting enough cold air circulation. help me out with some products.
heres my case

(f=80mm port) (F=120mm port)

your CPU is overheating not your case, I think u need to get a better cooling for your CPU. :)
 
Yeah, if you invest in a high quality heatsink and fan you shouldn't have a problem with overheating. Also, I suggest getting some Arctic Silver 5 to help with heat transfer between your processor and heatsink.
