My question is, do I need additional fans for my case? Corsair 400R comes with 3 120 fans, 2 intake in front and 1 exhaust in the back. I'm waiting for a HDD sale to buy another 3TB storage drive, so I will have 1 SSD and 2 mechanical drives in the front of the case. With a modest OC to both CPU and GPU, should I buy a couple more fans as exhaust on top, or use 140 fans to upgrade existing fans? If so, do you guys have any recommended fans?
Thanks for the help!
