Is 1 Case Fan enough?

hippity_hoppity · May 11, 2019

Hello! I'm planning to buy a new case for my little brother, he says that this one looks cool, at a very cheap price! And when I looked at it looks actually good. But it lacks when it comes to the fans. They somehow only provide 1 12cm LED RGB ring fan. Here's the link to the specifications of the case:

Any advice would be appreciated

Not in that case. The 1 single fan is shooting half its air flow into the PSU basement shroud and not hitting your components inside the case. You will end up with hot pockets of air and cause overheating issues as a result. You def need to add 1 or 2 more fans in the front and a proper rear exhaust fan. (to be honest, I personally don't like that case looks nor its lack of front panel air flow. yes you have a mesh on the bottom, but thats it. The top 2 will struggle to get any meaningful air from the bottom fan hogging it all.

It is possible to move fans around you know

But I do agree, at least one more fan in the rear would be good, and preposition the front fan higher so it's pushing air towards the middle of the case, but still visible through the mesh on the front panel.
