U dont need that many fans or a fan controller. Just get 2 and an air cooler then you could get a 980ti maybe

Just saying they arnt going to give u anything other than slightly lower temps, whereas a 980ti will give you way more performance.

 

Otherwise i wouldn't change anything

He/she may just like the extra noise the fans provide.

You guys realize they are quiet fans right? I mean there's no reason to be rude about it.
