Fans on the side panel on a Tt Core V21?

I've settled on 1 200mm in the front and a 140mm in the rear.

 

the CPU heat-sink is a Cryorig R1 Ultimate with an additional 3rd fan ('cause why not)

 

And since I'm using the window panel as the top and on side is going to be used as the intake for the GPU...

 

this leaves 1 meshed side panel open for potential fans (2 140mms at the most). Would it be worth mounting anything here? and if so, How?

Hmm, not really.

Wait what config are you front and back fans in?

How do you mean? the 200mm front fan is the intake (NZXT FZ 200), and the 140mm is the exhaust (Corsair AF140 Quiet edition)

Yeah, I don't think adding the side fans is necessary. Just leave them off unless the system gets too hot.
