Should I have fans with a water cooled CPU and GPU?

[klct555]

Like the title says, do I need fans If my CPU and GPU are water cooled? If I need or should have fans, where should I place them?

P.S. I have a Corsair H55 to cool the CPU and a Corsair H60 to cool the GPU.

Thanks.

Not exactly. The components still give off thermal energy, you coolers just move it elsewhere. Your PSU and every other part of your computer generates some thermal energy as a 'waste' product to their function. Even your pumps produce waste energy.

The VRMs; power management and delivery, on your motherboard can produce quite a lot of waste energy, that's why so many of the good ones have big heastsinks on them.
