I am a noob and I need urgent help about the case fan. I want to install it on the top or side but I have no. Ideas about which type of screws do I use and how do I tighten the. Screws.

You need to either use the special fan screws that come with it, the rubber retainers that work even better as they reduce transfer of vibration or small enough bolts to fit the holes along with rubber washers. I'd recommend using the rubber fan retainers, like these:

You can find them at other places, that was just easy to find so you could see what they are. Don't use regular screws as you'll likely shatter the plastic of the fan body.
