Hello, I am getting/building a computer after being helped out on here from another user.

I'll post the build only for reference. ( because builds go in another forum.)

After resolving my gaming computer dilemma he said I should maybe get a few cheap 120mm fans in the case for cooling.

Through my haste I forgot to ask him what that means.

By "a few" did he mean I could just put 3 of "these" in the case?

Or could any 3 120mm fans do? I saw some for $3.99. (Used most of my budget on the custom build so, max budget on fans would be $20-$30 dollars.)

I don't know anything about CPU fans.
 
Solution
If it comes with one then adding another one is a good idea. Your mid range components will not create a lot of heat so no need to go overboard on fans.

Oh! Okay, hmm since it already comes with one should I get one more to meet that minimal setup? Or I guess if say say It's enough.

I don't mind spending another $10 dollars or such. I was just worried about my new build rebooting allot or something.

I believe It does come with one. (It said next to fan: included) And It said something else like 3 fan slots or something but I guess you don't to fill em' all up.

I read on here that someone needed more fans to overclock, but I don't (or even know how) need to with 3.3 ghz.

Oh! Also is the fan I listed compatible with my build? ( I haven't the slightest idea.)
