Its a great case that can accept some huge graphics cards.

Maybe add a £1.99 120mm fan to the rear to help exhaust hot air.

I bought one for a friend in the pass.

It is a decent case for the price, but I definitely agree with stulid that you should add at least one more fan for exhaust, more if you got the budget.

You can get some of these low price OEM fans at £1.99 each:

...but they don't come with case fan screw, so you might need to get some for cheap off the auction site or you local PC store.

It's the case I use at the moment, one of the best budget cases on the market. Well worth its price.

Only one 120 Blue LED fan comes with the case, and that's pre-installed as front intake.

To answer your final question you can fit another 6. two in the bottom of the case, 1 at the back, 2 on top and a final one on your side panel.
