And not to mentioned CCF curvature eliminates the ability to use another fan 'properly'
there are AMD user's in here...the reason we keep quiet is because our PC is Cool n Quiet... |

That's quite cheesy..there are AMD user's in here...the reason we keep quiet is because our PC is Cool n Quiet... Anyway, was wondering if sound insulation will cause a heat build up in the casing? (i.e. stick some of those sound dampening foams at the side panel etc) |

that's the basic of FIFO design for cpu cooler.
cool airs come in from outside of the case, went thru the heated fins, and gone thru the exhaust blow holes with the help of rear fan. |

I prefer to have all the front casing fans blowing in, rear casing fans blowing out to have negative pressure in the casing - it sucks the cooler air from outside into the casing.
