this is a computer i'm thinking of building for a work/play computer.........i do a lot of intense graphic design, image processing, and catalog design.....a lot of Adobe products

The ventilation is going to suck on the case. For the price of case and fan, you can
buy an antec three hundred gaming case which comes with 1 x 120mm, and 1 x 140mm
already. And the ventilation is going to be a lot better.

What's your location/where are you buying from?
