I'm getting a Zotac 1060 mini for Christmas and I am reading that they tend to run hot. The processor is a G4560 and right now my PC only has the 120mm fan that's built into the power supply.
My case has space for two 120mm side fans, and one 80mm exhaust fan.

The room is air conditioned and the processor never really gets over 50 degrees with the current setup(only a power supply integrated fan)


I prefer to shop locally, but am willing to order online, if need be. II have no idea how much I should be looking to spend on a decent quality fan...



Here's what I was looking at:


For the 120mm:

-X2 enermax marathon for 24 dollars total:

-2 pack of corsair AF120 for 20 dollars total:

Of these two which are better? I'm not worried about LED lights. My case is not see through. Just want a fan that will last. How about this cheaper one?

At 12 dollars total for two, I wouldn't exactly be saving a fortune by selecting them over the corsair...


For the 80mm:

Enermax

or

Antec

Do these look like decent fans, or should I be looking for a higher price range?

Thanks Scout, Should I set any up as intake fans?
The side panel has two 120mm mounts stacked on top of each other, directly over the motherboard, and there is a rear upper 80mm mount, which is just below the top mounted PSU. Unfortunately there's no mount in the front for any fans.

I was thinking of making the lower 120mm an intake fan and setting all others as exhaust. Does that sound best?

OH wow, I guess the review video I saw missed that too! That's cool they even have a spot for a fan on the bottom!
So it looks like there's actually space for five 120mm fans. 2 on the side, two on the front and one on the bottom.
With that pack of four fans that you linked and the 80mm as an exhaust up top, how would you configure the four 120mm fans?

Thanks a lot Scout, you've been a huge help. I'm going to go ahead and order that 4 fan kit, thats a good price.
I might not use the fourth fan, but it's nice to have as an extra, or if I decide to put in a side fan, since my primary concern is keeping the GPU cool. My SSD hard drives won't get too hot I don't think
