Hello Im plannig on buying the Thermaltake H15 for a budget build, however it only comes with one case fan and I was wondering if is it good ?

Or should I buy a different one or maybe add another one.

I was thinking on this combo:

if it's a budget build there is no need for an extra fan. Do you have an idea of full specs? If your gaming then maybe 1 more fan would be nice. I have r5 1600x OC 3.8Ghz, Gtx 1060 6gB and only 2 case fans. Temps are fine in my Mid tower ATX Case (Corsair carbide spec-03).

My advice is to avoid that range of fans entirely as they are not good value, and generally not very good fans either.  If you do go with Corsair, then their ML range of fans are far better quality and value, and look much better too.  But, other better fans do still exist.  Noctua, Bequiet, Phanteks, Noiseblocker, EK, Antec, Coolink and many other companies make better fans than Corsair, but they may be more expensive or difficult to get hold of.  Some are even cheaper however.
