Are fans included with cases good or should be replaced?

Zimbwaxe

I'm wanting to get a Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX and planning to get an Msi Gaming X RX 480 and overclock it. I'm wondering if I would need to replace the 3 included fans with the case so the GPU wont overheat. And If I need to replace the fans, are there any recommendations for cheap but good fans?

The fans that comes from case is better than "cheap" ones, if you dont mind the noise the stock fans should be fine. If you want to spend 30 dollars a fan, such as high ones such as BeQuiet, Noiseblockers, Noctua.

Shouldn't be any need. Cases where manufacturer also makes fans they have cheapest of the lineup as casefans. Fractal Design and be Quiet! both have really good OEM case fans, I'd assume same goes with Phanteks which makes Noctua-level coolers.

They're hit and miss. Mostly hit. Replacement fans are normally specialised. For silence, for maximum airflow, for design. 
Stock fans move air effectively and do their job for the most part. Phanteks are phan-tastic (awful pun sorry) so their choice of fan is probably alright.
