So what one should i get?
What fans should i get for them?

specs

E6750
GA-P35-DS3L
EVGA 8800GTX
Antec NeoHE 550
Crucial Ballistix 2GB
SH-S203B DVD Burner
Seagate Barracuda ST3320620AS

My concerns with the RC-690, is with the bottom fan mounting bracket can block some PSU connectors. So i wonder if the NeoHE would block it.

That bottom fan mount is removable. i removed mine. Why? My Galaxy is about twice as long as a regular psu.

The reviews & specs are all wrong. 5 of the fan mounts are up to 14cm. not 12. Side, top & bottom. I have yet to see a case with so many 14cm mounts.

Mine are not that great. I'm using the 3 bundled fans: front 12cm, rear 12cm & side moved to the top 12cm. Nothing on the side. I have one cheap high-cfm fan in the rear top. & 2 deltas on the cpu hsf.

If you want some good fans:
