My question is, the case comes with 5 fans pre installed. Should i just keep those, or upgrade? If so, to what?

FX-8350
16gb G-Skill Sniper DDR3
Asus 990fx R 2.0 MOBO
MSi GTX 970 OC Edition
XFX TS 550W PSU (Dying)
Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit
2-1 TB Black hard drives
Dual Screen Set up

Wait and see how they perform and sound. Then decide what next.

BTW, what heatsink are you using with your FX-8350?

amd evo 212, that ok?

COLGeek · Jan 15, 2018

The CM Hyper 212 Evo is a decent aftermarket heatsink. Yes, it is okay.

5 fans will probably do the work. If any heating issue occurs I would buy a new heatsink or processor (lol) because that FX processor is one hot boi
