First Dresser Build - Lighting ?

Hey everyone, first post. I've delved deep into the boards as a lurker and I've been studying. But, I'm still a newbie and need some experienced advice.

I gutted my dresser after work this evening and I know what I'm working with as far as space.

My effective dimensions are 30"W x 18"D x 34"H. I am working on my lighting plans.

I want to know if the 4 pack of 120mm computer fans I bought will provide enough ventilation to keep my box cool with a 150w HPS light.

I'm on a budget and spent a fair amount of it on seeds (Sensi skunk #1, Afghani #1, and Royal Queen Special Kush #1). It's not in the budget to buy an inline fan/filter system AND the HPS light. But I don't want to pump the 70 bucks I could spend on it into CFLs only to upgrade later if I can avoid it. I will be able to upgrade later(possibly the ventilation if I can get by with computer fans for now), but I don't want to put the time and effort into CFLs if I'm going to turn around and rip them out.

For what it's worth, here's a picture of tonight's work.

Is that a bathroom "fart fan"? I actually have one of those and consider using it, just worried about how loud it would be.

I'll be searching for your threads with build info now...
