Goodevening everyone,

I plan on building my own first pc next month or so, but I'm not sure on the cooling.
I'm planning to use a Zalman Z9 Plus and it comes with three fans and supports up to 7 fans in total. 1 in front, 2 on top, 1 in the back, 2 in the side and 1 in the bottom.

I was wondering, whether I am going to need more than the 3 stock ones, and if it will fit my video card. I was planning to get a Gigabyte GTX 570 soc but I might for the new ones to come out from NVIDIA. I will also be using the i5 2500K with stock cooling. (I might overclock in the future but will get a better fan if so.)

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your reply, do you think that will be enough cooling for hardcore gaming sessions? And do you know anthing about if the GPU will fit in there?
