need help with case fans and cpu cooler

I am going to pair a gtx 1070 zotac mini with a ryzen 5 1600 in a corsair 200r (already have the case) how many fans do I need in the case? i want something really quiet so opting for silent wings 2 and for the cpu cooler I was thinking about the BeQuiet! shadow rock 2 or shadow rock slim

\Depends on if you're gonna be OCing hard, but for nominal OC of 200-400Mhz you might get away with using the wraith cooler that comes with it. For Case fans I would go with 2 intake fans and 1 exhaust.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

Should be fairly quiet, I am using the wraith cooler on a 1700 and a 200mm intake fan and a 140mm noctua on exhaust and there's very little sound even at full load when the fans ramp up even. You might just have to adjust the fan curve is all if it gets too loud for you. You should be good with those fans and the heatsink/cooler combo you got :)
