Do i need to buy fans for the NZXT h510? if so how many and which ones

[ShieldWasTaken]

Budget (including currency): 50 cdn

Country: canada

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: anything on steam 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

do i get fans for it?

If you can don't get that case it has bad airflow. If you already have it. Yeah deck it out with all the fans to make sure your components stay somewhat cool some arctic p12/p14's will do good.

Not really.

The H510 has 2x 120mm fans included and they should be enough for a low/mid-range build. 

If you are building a high end PC then you shouldn't buy the H510. 

 

The H510 isn't a bad case but it does have limited airflow because of the closed front panel.

The H510 has 2x 120mm fans included, 1x in the front for intake and 1x in the back for exhaust and they should be enough for a low/mid-range build.

is it enough for a 3070 and a 11600k?

What cooler do you plan to use for the 11600K ?

The 3070 could be a little bit toasty because of the limited fresh intake air.

What you have here is the ingredients for an Easy Bake Oven. You seriously need a better case for these components.

The CM Hyper 212 Evo is fine for the 11600K even with a small overclock. 

 

You want to look at cases with a mesh front panel and minimum of 2-3 included case fans (unless you buy extra fans yourself). 

These are some of the best airflow cases from the last year. 

 

Lian Li Lancool II Mesh

be quiet! Pure Base 500DX

be quiet! Silent Base 802

Corsair 4000D Airflow

Phanteks P500A Digital

Fractal Meshify 2 / Fractal Meshify 2 Compact

Lian Li LANCOOL 215 Mesh
