Is 1 case fan enough for a budget build?

Zeke_

How much can 1 case fan take? I'm building my first PC with budget parts and have no idea how many fans I need for a Pentium and a GTX 1050 Ti

What case? I only one case in my build, it does make things get a bit hot but depends on how much the case already have.

Looks like it should be fine if a touch hot. Personally I'd use 2x 120 as intake and exhaust on that case, but the Pentium and 1050ti probably don't need it.

 

Sometimes the biggest improvement for pc cooling is getting the case up off the ground in an spot on your desk where air can move around it.

Silent build - You know your pc is too loud when the deaf complain. Windows 98 gaming build, smells like beige

@it_dont_work I plan on getting another fan (mostly for the LEDs) sometime within the first few months after I build it anyways. Thanks for the help!
