So I finally got an ATX computer case; GIGABYTE 3D AURORA to be exact. It only comes with 3 120mm fan holes, but I'm gonna cut some more 120mm fan holes, but where can I find some computer fan mounts at?

What are you putting in it hardware wise? Cutting holes to mount fans can seldom if ever be done properly enough to make it not look like shit. Chances are if you just mount 3 fans you'll be fine.

I mean you do you, but I'd test beforehand. Likely 3 fans should be perfectly fine with that setup.
