Hello! Thanks to the help from the forum, I have put together this build and started buying parts. It is too late to change out any components, so please focus on cooling needs for the purpose of this thread. I was wondering if I should be looking at installing any additional case fans besides the 2 that will come pre-installed on the case. If so, what should I be looking at and what would the best configuration be? I don't think I need it, but figured I should ask those with more experience. Thanks for any help.
