I would look at this,maybe a nice 140mm at the front for an intake with the stock back fan.

CM Force 500 supports upto 6 fans and comes with one pre-installed fan. Your system configuration seems to be fine and if you face heating issues an aftermarket CPU cooler will do better job than a cabinet fan. Still, if you want, you may fit an intake fan in front of cabinet and an exhaust fan towards rear of cabinet for maintaining airflow.
