I just built a PC with this case but it's overheating the CPU due to the bad air flow so i'm thinking i need a liquid cooler, but any suggestions are welcome.
Here's the case BTW.

I really don't know If the current front fans actually do anything cooling wise i assumed they did is why i bought the case as it came with pre-installed fans plus it has air holes on both the side and a slit at the bottom. I'll List the temps i've seen if that helps in anyone giving suggestions. But i really don't know what cooler i can use in this case the way it's set up.
Idle on startup: 36c-40c
While gaming: It gets close to 85c I even seen once it reach 94c.
I can run a test with and without the front panel and side panel and get back to this post tomorrow once I can set down and do so. I'm currently using the the Nvidia control panel to check in-game temps on both the CPU and GPU. The GPU so far seems fine only getting about 64c at worst playing outer worlds on high but i'm just making sure.

Currently what I have in my system.
I'm thinking of just buy a new case. I simply don't have faith in this one now and i could just resale to someone not doing a gaming build or something. Simply allowing my case to breath with the side off has got me this.

The new case i'm thinking of replacing it with it this btw.

One final update: Turns out the front panel is the issue. My current temps after playing for close to 3 hours with it off. I still plan to buy a better cooler but perhaps the case isn't all bad. thanks everyone for helping me out. i really appreciate it.
