Default Just Upgraded (Need Info On Fans)

Ok so i just upgraded my rig and in the process I noticed that my case has terrible air flow and the only FAN's inside are the one on the CPU / one of the GPU and one on the PSU.

Besides the hardware fan's there are actually ZERO case fan's nothing for intake/exhaust.

I tried a google but it seem's all the fan's I can find are like CPU fan's that have sink and stick to the cpu.

I was wondering if someone could help me find a few simple cheap case fan's. I plan on putting one against the holes inthe back of the case so it expell's hot air rising and one in the bottom to intake cool air.

Also its advisable to but a better quality one as there is nothing more annoying than noisy fans. Good Luck

I just went through the same process, realising my pc had bad airflow etc. so I bought a Thermaltake Thunderblade 120 mm LED Basic Fan. Installed it in the front of the case to pull cold air in from some vents I found. I have it plugged in to the 12v supply so it runs at 100% all the time and it is VERY quiet. When my GPU fans are on 50 % they are louder than this fan on 100.

I also installed a G.Skill Turbulence II Ram Cooler, really cheap (around $15), effective, and looks really cool.
