I was thinking of adding one or two more fans. Do I need too. If so any suggestions. I was thinking of one intake in the side panel directly over the cpu and a top blowhole exhaust directly over the hole in the top of the chassis. You can see it in the bottom left picture. That would give me 2 intake 2 exhaust (not counting the pwr supply exhaust) and the cpu fan.
 
yeah it'll just make more noise. Good computer for starting out!
