My first case was cheap, it came with no fans just optional vents for attaching them

It hard to tell but there should at least be one maybe two vents in the back that will fit a a 80mm fan each.

80mm fans are like 5 buck throw one in there and you'll be all set if worried
I do not know of any case that does not have at least some fans(coolers)
What case do you have?

More airflow, by itself will not improve performance one bit.
Only if your parts are shutting down because of dangerous heat levels might there be a performance impact.

If your case has NO fans at all, I would install two. Fans are inexpensive. Look for yate loon. They are cheap and perform well.
Install two as intakes if your case permits. If not, one as intake and the other as exhaust.

Performance is not the issue; parts longevity might be.
