I'm in the process the on building a new p4 system in a cooler master ATC 210 case and need some advice on the cooling part. So far, i have a GeForce4 Ti 4600 and and audigy sound card so i know the temperature will be really hot.

the case only has two exhaust fans, one on the top panel and one on the back panel. I have a one hdd cooler fan system that is basically two fans blowing air onto the harddrive and a pci slot fan that sucks air out.

My questions is, should i cut panels in both sides on the case to attach intake fans since so far there aren't any intake fans? I was thinking of putting them on the lower corner closest to the front of the case, both of them not parallel to each other. What do you guys think? Do you guys think the extra fans are necessary?
