    Hi,
    Yes of course you should add as many fans as your case can handle :)
    If your mother board only has 2-3 fan ports just add a controller

    You could also go with a couple of these

    Hey ThrashZone,

    I don't think I need a new fan controller because I see another fan connector in my case near the front. I removed my front case and I removed the side case. Tell me if this plan sounds good:

    I keep the side removed until I get a fan for the front?

    But then my question is: How will I mount a fan to the front of my case? I have included pictures of the computer to help.

    Hi,
    Looks like you could fit at least 1-120mm fan on the side where the grill on the front is it just looks like it needs to go inside the case :/

    So if I install it would it be in the front with the front panel off right? How would I go about mounting it so it can hang there?

    Hi,
    You'd just need to move it around and align it with the existing grid holes
    Fans come with screws :)
