I've been thinking about getting the NZXT Phantom case (this version: http://imgur.com/MxeJExJ).
But is it any good? How are the fans in it? And where should I put fans in it (if I get new ones). I'm a noob at this, as you can probably tell and i've never built a computer before. Solution will be picked :)

Yes, that is a nice case. Aesthetics are pleasing, and it is roomy. You should get adequate airflow with the included fans, unless you are building a pretty powerful system. Put additional fans in the front, the top, and the side.
