I had an old 120mm fan from my old cabinet(I think it is deepcool 120mm non-rgb) & my main aim was to cool multiple hdd for which it seems to work fine. I only got 100R because I needed at least 4 hdd bays with possibility to add more via 5.25" optical drive bays. If you are not going to use more than 1/2 hdd(ssd you can connect even without bays & just leave them hanging or use tape to fix them on drive cage etc) then no reason to specifically go for 100R.

No, hot air always move up(laws of physics) so closing top vents is never a good idea in any place where heat is generated.
Yay, I have it all running now. Just need to fit the hard disk when I get it on Monday. *2.bp.blogspot.com/-y1OsOs8Gmhg/VV11-lZsJ_I/AAAAAAAABS4/G5mYj01blsI/s1600/100R%2BBox%2BContents.jpg I am a little confused on how to install the front intake fan. I should use the long fan screws shown in this image right? And I need to screw it in from the inside of the case to the outside, right?
Also I went into BIOS and selected Load Optimized Defaults. The memory speed is set 21** something with that. It should be OK if I change it to 3200 right?

Long fan screws & you need to screw them in from outside(open front panel then put fan over exposed panel & then screw them in). What you said applies to small screws in case long screws are unable to reach the inside of the case because of more than standard width of fan.
In memory settings see xmp profile option & then load that to see if it loads successfully.
In such cases LEDs usually don't light up at all.
