Cooling a Silverstone Temjin 5

[Thomasag]

I've got the Silverstone Temjin 5 on the way.

It will be water cooled by an Exos Al - but what kind of air cooling should I allot for?

Stock, the case comes with two 120mm fans - but it is capable of having 3 more 80mm fans.

Should I buy 1,2, or 3 (80mm) fans for the case? what speed/make?

If Anandtech's own review of the case is true, then it should already have plenty of cooling with the included 120mm fans. I'd wait until you have the system installed after the case arrives before buying additional fans.

Put everything in, and see if it's stable and to your liking, then adjust from there, but with that case it should be cool enough... you should only need more fans if you were to overclock, I would imagine.

Less fans and neatly placed/wrapped wires leads to a fat wallet and a cold, quiet PC.

If you have to get fans, I'd recommend Antec.
