How many case fans

Go to solution Solved by LogicalDrm,

At least 1 rear exhaust fan is needed. Rest is bit here and there. I would honestly add later if needed.

I have all my parts purchased for my upcoming build. The highlights include a 7600k and an EVGA FTW+DT GTX 1060 6gb. The build is all going together inside the Thermaltake core v21. I know the d15 is total overkill for this chip especially since I'm using bit fans. My reson is that I plan on never switching coolers ever again in my life. My question is, do I need extra case fans along with the 200mm in the case? Also what configuration should the fans be in?

I have the z270mx gaming 5 from gigabyte which only has 3 fan headers. Should I get an intake for the GPU and the other is an exhaust
