my RX 580 2048sp gets hotter and probably other components too when case is closed, i want to close it so i can put it down and not fear children or cats touching the inside of it
from what i read online and all that, an exhaust fan would do the job but if i get new case can i use exhaust or intake fan and reverse their moves with just getting plate and screws out?
i spent too much on my pc and yeah i know i have to mount my card
HOW CAN I CHOOSE FAN THAT FITS PERFECTLY ON MY CASE

my case needs exhaust fan or intake fan?

It needs both. Intake fan in front and exhaust fan in back.
Front needs to have mesh air intake. Closed front will starve air intake.

Measure distance between screw holes.

If it has no spot for intake fan, then get a new pc case.

so i have to keep case open until i buy new one?

looks like front-bottom(surrounded by red) is possibly mesh, can't really tell by blurry photo.

look behind this area if it is mesh.
if there was a spot for intake, this would be it.

this appears to be a very old case though.
@SkyNetRising has the best idea, replace it with a new/better case.

actually the panel that i removed seems to be having a lot of holes with holes placed in square shape like it was meant for fan
