Okay so heres the thing. I built my own gaming pc and installed everything however I haven't played games on it and is not sure if I need more fans or no.
My gaming rig:
i5 6600k
Asus z170 pro gaming aura
EVGA gtx 1080 sc
Nhd 15
Ripjaw V
Samsung 850 ssd
EVGA 750w gs
Phantom 530 full tower

I only have a fan and my nhd 15. Are those fans enough to keep my pc cool when gaming? or do I need more? also how do I keep track of my pc's temp?

Well you can still play games. I would recommend adding a fan in the front for that front in-take. Can't tell if you have a spot in the front. But if you have two spots in the front, add two, and that one in the back should be fine while your CPU cooler is also blowing air along with the GPU. if you are looking at the PC with the glass, the air should flow like this:

Rear <~~~~CPU~~~~~~Front intake
