I'll have to do some searching to find that fan. I am reusing a PS that I already own. What problems have you had with the case?
The only problem I see with the case is it isn't heat conduction friendly. It looks like the heat will stay in one place in that case. Anyways if you go to my link, the fan can be ordered with the heatsink all in the same place. I've ordered from there as has Rick, it's a perfectly find vendor.

A case I would recommend for around that price would be:

The Antec P182. It has a chambered design and the motherboard tray is slightly elevated. Which means you can run all of your wiring behind the motherboard tray leaving the area above the motherboard clutter free.

Here's a link:

Edit: You can place your hard drive in the lower chamber and remove the middle chamber and place a fan there for better cooling.
