If you want to mount a 120mm in the 620, you're gonna have to do a bit of
chopping about...! There's not really anywhere to mount it.
On the power supply front, I've just come across the Antec NeoPower
http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/info_1774.html, which seems to be an
uber-quiet upgrade of the TruPower series using a 120mm intake fan instead
of an 80 or 92mm job. The price is quite high though, and it's rather
overpowered for a HTPC. One for those meaty backend boxes I guess...
Again though, the TruPower series are fantastic, although I'd say the Tagan
350W I've just put in my gf's computer is quieter.
