Hello, i got a new case, the deepcool tesseract sw, my case has only 1 intake fan wich is not that great by my hand's feeling and 1 rear exhaust and 2 top fans the behing one i put it to exhaust and the front one to intake because it was exhausting the air in front of my cpu cooler. Some suggestions for this? i think i need more intake fans but i dont have very much space left except for the side panel were i can put up to 2 fans but it will look kinda ugly. Thank you :)

Your case is not a great one for cooling if you are using hot components.
What will you have inside?
Normally, you want a pair of 120/140mm front intakes.
The exhaust will take care of itself.

I see two options if you want/need better cooling.

1. Replace the front intake 120mm fan with one of much higher rpm. Perhaps 3000 rpm.
The price you pay will be higher noise.

2. As a more unconventional solution, make the two top 120mm openings as intakes using the two supplied fans.
You may get hot exhaust out the front, but cooling of your parts will be better.
If you do this, orient a tower type air cooler horizontally so it can take in the cooling air more directly.
You will want lo profile ram or a cooler with high ram clearance.

i have an amd fx 6300 oc to 4.0 but it doesnt exceed 50c with a gammax 300 in aida64 for 2 hours and an 1050ti wich is running at about 50-60c in gta v 8 gigs of hyperx blue ddr3 1600
I thinked same as you in the nr1 answer and i am considering it
and the second seems a little bit harder but its ok, everything could be done :)

Your GTX1050ti is a good one that runs cool.

OTOH, the FX-6300 is an older and hotter chip, particularly when overclocked.
They will throttle and slow down if temperatures get too high.
I am less familiar with AMD, but I think you are close to that point.
So long as you are performing well, you need do nothing.
