Building New PC – What/How Many Case Fans should I use?

Hey guys,
I'm wondering what computer case fan to buy for my case.
I was wondering if one product is better than another and I am open to recommendations.
I'm not particularly fussed about noise, all I want is decent cooling.
Oh and I nearly forgot, if anyone has an idea of how much benefit the fans will be to cooling my components
and whether or not it is worth buying ,that would be great
Thanks in advance

Cute.

It looks like a case fan is OPTIONAL with that, since the power supply is external?
So unless you are cramming some hot stuff in there, you should be fine.

I would try with just the CPU fan, see how you do.
If you DO need a fan, I'm glad you aren't worried about noise.. cuz it seems to call for 60mmx10mm fans. Smaller fans need to spin faster and are by necessity louder. So just put in whatever you have around. I would put two of them, and I'd put them on speed controls, (like this) and run them as slow as I could get away with.

Me? I care about noise.. so I would see if I could physically fit a larger fan in? Then I would put the biggest fan I could fit, also on a speedo.

You wanna get deep?
