Hi im new to building and was planning to put together a new pc containing - Ryzen 7 3700x , an Rtx 3070 and an Asus Strix X570-F as the motherboard. Will the 2 stock fans that come with the NZXT H510 case be enough or will i need to get more fans?

If this was a lesser build, i'd just put one of the exhausts on the front, but i believe you should get 2 more intake fans.

As long as you dont block its side intake, and put a fan or 2 for it, that case is fine.

That case don't really cool any better with front intakes. It has helped just a bit adding one front upper position intake fan. Hardly no difference in the 500 and 510.

Not a case I would use or recommend.

I would pick a case with better airflow but using that case the 2 stock fans without adding more. Also add a decent aftermarket CPU cooler that will do you better than adding extra case fans.

Using the case you picked.

isnt good front panel is close...and fresh air is cut...sorry mate that case is crap

The H500 isn't totally crap; most people are just setting it up incorrectly.

@hs123
If you intend to air cool only in the H500, the stock configuration of top and rear exhaust is the best.
If the stock setup isn't enough and you need more effective cooling, the gpu needs to be liquid cooled first. If you don't want to deal with that, look at a different chassis.
