Thermaltake Armor Mod

I have $200 dollars to spend on a case, and at first I was looking at a Thermaltake Armor case. I read reviews and noticed that the motherboard didn't get very good airflow. I looked around and found the same case, except it had a 250mm side fan: http://www.xoxide.com/thermaltake-armor-case-250mm-black.html
Do you think that would help the airflow? After shipping the case with the added fan in $26 more, do you think its worth it?

Did you have a look at the antec 900? great air flow, for less

Thanks, I would definetely get that case, but (this may sound stupid) my friend built a computer with that case and I'd like to do something different.

Does anyone have any other ideas? I need it to fit a 8800GTX

Any help is appreciated!

then take another look at this one, the bad part is that it doesn't have a side panel:

Thanks again chupacabra, I was really looking for one with a side panel (I probably should of put that in the original post)

The Armor, especially with the 25cm fan, is a great case for cooling and size.

Check out the P180B with the side panel on performancepcs.com, it's great and costs about the same as the armor.
