What will happen if I don't install case fans

but only have 1 case fan installed from the case ?

[genexis_x]

Intake or exhaust?

Even there's no case fan, your PC will not burn

nothing, because you haven't provided us enough info to evaluate 

[slightlyjaded]

nada, zip, zero zilch.

 

Computer comnponents in this day and age are intelligenet enough to control themselves and throttle back if they get too hot. The whole idea of case fans for most people is avoiding the whole "getting too hot" at the upper end is controlling where the air comes from so you only have to clean the filters out every few months instead of taking a vacumn cleaner to the motherboard to clean out all the dust bunnies (and frying the motherboard with static discharge in the process)

Motherboard vrms and chipset will probably get very hot as there won't be much airflow over them.

So? You just picked the components with the least fucks given about the heat put through them.

The chipset is controlled even in the cheepest of builds by that cheap arse intel or AMD included cooler.

And your point is? He's asking what would happen, that's what would happen. Calm down lol.

Install the intake fan on the either front or rear panel of the case, then leave one of the side panels open. This will help moving the heat from your machine to your room

I have been doing this for the past year since all my case fans are broken and I don't bother buying new fans. If my PC gets real hot, I just use a stand alone fan to blow it cool

[SCHISCHKA]

some m-ITX cases are made to have just one fan. You have a pentium you will be fine

My case cannot put a rear fan

Then front fan?

Otherwise open all the side panels and use no fans (but the CPU and GPU fans) at all. Just make sure you have a standalone fan beside you because the machine will make the surroundings hotter than usual

The front fan is already installed when I got the case

So has any insects invaded your computer ? 

[Sauron]

You may get higher temperatures.

This is not even remotely true.  What will happen is that you will have either poor intake or exhaust and your case will heat up over time until your components hit the point where they throttle due to being near their thermal limit.  They may be "smart" enough to avoid damaging themselves, but throttling is not a good thing... it means you're getting substantially worse performance than you should be, and for what?  To avoid spending $20 on some cheap value 140mm fans?
