I was wondering if I will need another case fan if I buy the Corsair Spec 03, it comes with two. One front intake and 1 back exhaust. My rig has a R9 280 and an i5 4590 if that matters. If i do need another front fan it would be really helpful if you showed me another one that would look the same as the other front LED fan included. I would like to buy tonight so quick answers would be great! - Lucas

Ot would be hard to match corsair stock fan since fans that come with cases usually have like gray fans and anything you buy in store would have black fans. Unless you call corsair and make them send you some. Your corsair spec 3 has good airflow if you remove HDD cage from front. That's why there is only one fan on it above HDD cages. Usually extra fan doesn't make much difference but it helps push heat generated by by gpu out of your case if you have enough exhaust fans. Good luck

If you buy the white version, that comes with two front LED fans and one plain black exhaust fan. The cooling that the case offers out of the box is very impressive, but the stock fans are quite noisy - you might want to swap out the front fans anyway, or add a fan controller.
