I'm getting the following PC to order. Also getting an extra fan. I will not push this system more than a few minutes at a time (e.g. when rendering video/audio). Would I need any extra cooling components?

Thanks.

GPU - EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 SC 6GB GDDR5
CPU - i7 11700K (3.6-5.0)
RAM - 2 x 16GB DDR4 (3200)
MOBO - MSI Z590-A PRO LGA 1200
HD- Samsung 980 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD
Cooling - be quiet! Pure Rock Slim, 124.8mm Height, 120W TDP, Copper/Aluminum CPU Cooler

You need a lot better CPU cooler for that processor it can draw over 200 watts.

You will want at least 2 intake fans and 1 exhaust.
