Use the 120mm fan that comes with the sonata case...otherwise you might be adding noise. The sonata case has a spot for an extra 120mm fan near the front (right behind the hard drive chassis). If you would like more cooling, I suggest you populate it with something quiet like a 120mm antec smartcool fan. (I have two in my computer, and they are virtually silent.)

As for the specs:

- If it is favorable with respect to cost, get a NEC DVD±RW instead of a Sony. Sony is good, (I have one in my compy) but the NEC 16x DVD±RW drives are better (I have used 5 so far in other computers).

- I have had bad experiences with Geil RAM in the past...but that was only in one single instance. Just thought I would make mention.
