Question cooling for 1 fan case

[zodz77]

I have a new apex case with 1 80mm fan exhaust, 21.7 cfm. I can add a hard drive cooling 2 tiny fans to 5.25 in. drive bay for intake,18 cfm. case has 2 groups of tiny vents on each side of computer also for cooling. computer not build yet. should I use a better case with more fans, no gaming for this Linux white box computer I was building. I have a cooler master 912 haf case I can use, but was going to save for other build,lol

Are you sure that's new and not from the 90's? not seen an 80mm fan in ages. Swap case else you'll regret it.

Can you find your pc case model here?

Anyway - it all depends on hardware and intended usage of this pc. If components are low power/low tdp and you're not doing anything computationally intensive on this pc, then it might just be fine.
