I have a Thermaltake Tsunami Dream (with window). I'm running a Q6600 and EVGA 880GTX 768 card.

I'm going to replace the front and rear 120mm fans with something a bit better. Was thinking of Hiper 120mm ones.

I was wondering about the 90mm fan that comes on the side window. Is there a way to change this to a 120mm? I'm not the handiest of people and don't fancy taking a Dremel to the window!

Also, I have removed the cable and top USB/speaker/firewire ports that come out of the top so might stick a fan in that too.

Lastly, is there a programme that will allow me to monitor the temp inside the case? Or, failing that, something I can add to do this?

Ta!

If your system is running stable, I wouldn't worry too much about case temps. If you have a stability issue, I would look at water cooling. I personally hate fan noise, so that's my number one issue after stability.

These adapters come in 90mm to 120mm also. Computer/Electronics stores like Fry's has them in stock usually.
