idealy it should be 2 Intake and 2 Exhaust atleast.

2 Intake and 1 Exhaust is fine too, if your case only supports 1 exhaust.

2nd exhaust doesn't help that much. Not even while OCing. 2 in, 1 out is good, but if case comes with just 2 fans, 1 in, 1 out works also.

 

For OCing stock cooler is fine, but don't expect miracles. For anything higher you will need aftermarket cooling. Also, beware of case. Some aren't intended for air coolers or have otherwise restrictive design. Check up some reviews before picking the coolest looking or cheapest.

The stock case fan is enough but adding a front intake would help.
