It would probably help cooling.

That being said, you should see how your temps are before deciding on whether or not to buy new fans. 

Hey guys i need some advice on getting the best case cooling for build i plan on doing. I will be using the  Phanteks Enthoo Pro  Case. It comes with 1X  200mm intake fan  FRONT, 1X 140MM EXHAUST REAR. Im thinking to add 2 X 140MM EXHAUST TOP.  Considering that my  CPU intel stock fan cooler and video card as both as intakes will his cooling be good. As far as i think my theory goes that this should create a neutral type pressure. Having a even of 3X intake fans and 3X exhaust fans . What do you guys think ? be appreciated cheers. 

 

Video card: MSI GTX 1060 ( Twin Frozr VI cooling )

CPU: I5 6500 (WITH STOCK FAN)

Case fans i intend to add:  2X PH-F140SP, a 140mm Premium fan

I have this case and im using the fans that came with it, they are pretty decent. Im using an H105 which is mounted up top exhausting air. But I would reall suggest an after market CPU cooler.

There's need for an aftermarket cooler on a 6500 or more fans.

The stock fans should already be fine.

True, as long as he is ok with his temps. but a cheap CPU cooler isnt a bad idea, a tower cooler will help move air better?

The stock cooler is plenty for keeping temps in check for a 6500.

There will always be better cooling options but having more than necessary doesn't really do anything.

exhaust on top is a bad idea. it starves the cooler of airflow. i was running exhaust with the stock cooler and i hit ~80C under load. swapping the fan to intake dropped it to ~75C
