first what do you mean system controlled? do you mean a fan control unit or actually changing the speed of the fan from windows (or other OS)?
if its the former what model, if the latter i dont think its possible, you could go the cheap way and put a viriable resistor on the cable to change its speed...though i dont really know if this actually works
2nd, for your case the "Dials on it telling me tempatures fanspeed" dont often come with the case, unless its quite a high priced one. just get a fan controller and put it in one of the 5.25" drives. also does your 120 include a PSU? if not then do you need a PSU as well?
i like the P180, looks kinda like a fridge but comes in either black or silver. has good airflow because it is all compartmentalized and is very quiet costs 124.99 on newegg.com
although some ppl say that its pretty big from what i've gathered

this case has a built in lcd temperature fan controller. It is the case that I'm going to be using.

calm down its only 12 on the east coast so the rest of the US is still sleeping or just waking up
but sometimes on newegg theres a description telling u of a temp gauge on the case but like its said above those are on the more exspensive cases
but in the bios u can tell how hot your mobo and cpu are
and for good airflow just look at reviews on newegg cause most people that buy a case that has good airflow will be like "this is an excellent case and has great airflow" or "this case sucks and has horrible airflow"

I was thinking about these 2 cases for great airflow and just buy a gauge later on...Anybody know about these 2 cases?
