From what I see, your case is too small and you need the CPU cooler too. Because 1) the i5-3570k runs hot and the stock cooler can't cool down the i5. 2) gtx460 also runs hot too. 3) The PSU blow the hot air into the case too. 4) The real fan maybe only the 80mm. That why the fan try to cool down to run in high speed.

So you only can do 1) open the panel use other fan blow the PC. 2) I recommend buy the case Thermaltake Versa II VO700A1N3N for $25 after MIR and cpu cooler Hyper 212 Plus for $20 after MIR.

go with cin19 advice get the case and the after market cooler also buy some thermal paste http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186038 you wont will gain follownig these recmmendation .

 

[the great randini]

you can control the fan speed with

ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility ver:0.1.328 from the mother board disc or from asrock. toms did a review of the software, not sure if the software has been updated since. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/z77-express-ivy-bridge-benchmark,3254-4.html

If you don't OC the i5, you get the case first because there is only small space around the cpu. After you have the new case then the whole system has the better air flow and keep the temp down too. Also you need do some cable management too, and I add some pictures in the link. http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/view;_ylt=A0PDoS4PIQRRNSoAiYiJzbkF;_ylu=X3oDMTBlMTQ4cGxyBHNlYwNzcgRzbGsDaW1n?back=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.search.yahoo.com%2Fsearch%2Fimages%3Fp%3Dcable%2Bmanagement%2BPC%26_adv_prop%3Dimage%26va%3Dcable%2Bmanagement%2BPC%26fr%3Dyfp-t-701-s%26tab%3Dorganic%26ri%3D74&w=950&h=853&imgurl=123pcmac.fr%2Fcontenu%2Fphotos%2Fmontage%2Fcable_management_pc.jpg&rurl=http%3A%2F%2F123pcmac.fr%2Fmontage_pc_sur_mesure.php&size=258.7+KB&name=Flux+d%26%2339%3Bair+optimal+gr%C3%A2ce+%C3%A0+un+bon+%26%2339%3B%3Cb%3Ecable+management%3C%2Fb%3E%26%2339%3B&p=cable+management+PC&oid=8b17935a429ff166f9262106efe3f403&fr2=&fr=yfp-t-701-s&tt=Flux%2Bd%2526%252339%253Bair%2Boptimal%2Bgr%25C3%25A2ce%2B%25C3%25A0%2Bun%2Bbon%2B%2526%252339%253B%253Cb%253Ecable%2Bmanagement%253C%252Fb%253E%2526%252339%253B&b=61&ni=108&no=74&ts=&tab=organic&sigr=11ctiecv9&sigb=14a26o0o6&sigi=11qcusofv&.crumb=vBukqSqCsRG

thanks for quick replys i just wanna let you guys know i wont OC anything yet maybe my gtx 460 is it okay if i dont get the cool master fan? i can only get the case because i spent like 490$ with psu ram n cpu mobo. Can i get complete list of what i need and like case and what about thermal paste is that only if i get new Fan? and is there good case around 20~40 $ ish

 

[scout_03]

thermal paste will be usefull if you play with the cooler see the suggested case from cin 19 for the price it is good .

Sorry i missed what you mean, Do i need the paste if i'm not getting a new Fan? for cpu

 

[scout_03]

you need to paste when you remove or installl another fan ,you must always have paste between the cpu and the cooler this help to dissipate heat from cpu to cooler .

1)That case and one fan ($4 after MIR) for inake from front to get better air flow. you can get other one on the top later. I had two of this in my case, it is quiet fan.

2) Get the cpu cooler and thermal paste, either change it for the cpu or the GPU too.

 

[scout_03]

this cpu is a good choice check those 2 cases they got all the fans you need for around the same price of your choice http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007583%20600006302%204025&IsNodeId=1&page=1&bop=And&CompareItemList=7|11-146-084^11-146-084-TS%2C11-146-083^11-146-083-TS

[taran11]

gonna order soon someone ? im not surw which one contains more than one fan and which one is the best cooling cpu

 

[cin19]

I found there more, 1st one: two fans, top mounted PSU, USB2.0, $32. 2nd one: two fans, bottom mounted PSU, USB2.0, $35. 3rd one, 4 fans bottom mounted PSU, USB3.0, $40 after MIR.

The case with bottom mounted PSU has better air flow and better cooling.

I was wondering why ur not answering my linsk lol haha i will get that thanks and shall i get any additional fans and what size?

 

[cin19]

You don't have to get other fan, if you want get the 2x 120mm or one 200mm (more expensive) for the top. But you are better to use the money to get the cpu cooler later.

 

[scout_03]

the one i was suggesting came with plenty of fans also the support usb 3.0 and 2.0 and if you look at thespecs of your motherboard she's also have 3.0 support for front and back http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z77%20Pro4-M/?cat=Specifications

 

[taran11]

thats the motherboard i currently have gotten it 3 days ago everythhing is so fast tripled my fps in games
