Do I need case fans?

[VirusStorm]

I will be overclocking my cpu using my h100i (the fans for the h100i are inside the case) but I will not be overclocking my gpu. Do I need a case fan?

Yes the GPU (if it's an aftermarket cooler, not blower style) will leave the hot air in the case. You need something to circulate the hot air, out. Just one in the front and an exhaust at the back should be fine.

Edit: If you don't like noise just get bequite fans and run them at a low rpm.

In theory it's always good to have good air circulation in the case. Your GPU if it is not blower type, will just blow the air inside the case. Meaning it will blow out hot air in the case and "use back" the hot air to cool your GPU. Hope it make sense to you. Just get 1 for intake and 1 for output.
