Pre-installed fans good enough?

Buying a Fractal Refine R6 that comes with 3 140 mm fans (2 Front, 1 Rear). I will be also adding a 4th 140 mm external fan on top. These are the fans:

The fans that come with the case look decent, but probably won't be good enough to cool a system with an OC'd i7-8700k and GTX 1080. If I add a 120 mm fan in the front, and another 120 mm fan in either the rear or top, will it be enough to keep cool temps?

Or do I need to buy top-notch fans from Noctua or be quiet! and replace the pre-installed ones?
 




will the 2 extra fans help though? since I already have them laying around in my house
