Cooling: Arctic F12 120mm 2
Cooling: Noctua NF-A15 PWM 14cm 1200RPM 1

im going to be gaming at 1080p and 60 fps. the reason i chose the gtx 1070 over the 1060 is mainly because i dont want to change a gpu every two years
so what do you think ? naturally i wont be doing any overcloacking so can i drop the cooling fans i added? ( the case comes with one 140mm front fan and one 120mm back fan)

Yea it should be fine, I wouldn't bother putting in additional fans unless your running into cooling issues which I doubt you'll have unless you have a really high ambient (room) temp.

are you saying that the stock cooling of one intake fan and one output would suffice?
